Aim

Iliopsoas tendinopathy occurs due to friction of the iliopsoas tendon on the iliopectineal bar or the hip capsule causing pain and snapping of the hip. In adolescent cases this condition is generally treated conservatively with physiotherapy, stretching and NSAIDs. Our aim was to study the outcome of non-operative management of iliopsoas tendinopathy.

Method

A retrospective 4-year study identified adolescent patients with a clinical diagnosis of psoas tendinopathy managed non-operatively. These patients were followed up by postal questionnaire, which included functional assessment using the Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS). A custom study questionnaire assessed current symptoms and the effects of physiotherapy. All patients not treated conservatively were removed from the study.
