Bilateral Ischiofemoral Impingement: A Case Report and Literature Review
Journal Title: Journal of Orthopedics & Bone Disorders - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 4
Abstract
Background: Ischiofemoral Impingement (IFI) is rare disease and more common in females than in males. It is characterized by hip and groin pain with abnormalities of the quadratus femoris muscle. The narrowing of ischiofemoral space (IFS) and quadratus femrois space (QFS) are the main causes. It is easy to be missed diagnosis in daily clinical works. Case Report: We report the case of a 16 years old girl without trauma, pain in the right hip region only under loading. In MRI there exist an obvious narrowing IFS and QFS with edema in quadratus femoris muscle. The measurement of the neck-shaft angles is also greater than normal. Conclusions: IFS should be paid more attention when the hip or groin pain occurred. MRI is the best methods for the diagnosis of the IFI. The main treatments include conservative treatment, operation treatment and steroid injection but no ideal one. Further study should be taken to find a better treatment of IFI.
