Abstract

Hip pain is a significant problem in the young adult (15–40 years) affecting atleast one in 20 patients. Though most sources of pain are from the hip joint, it may also be caused by structures external to it, such as the iliopsoas muscle complex. Recent advances in radiological imaging and hip arthroscopy have increased our understanding of this muscle and its surgical management. We present a comprehensive review of the iliopsoas and its pathologies, with specific emphasis on its arthroscopic treatment.
