Traumatic aseptic osteitis pubis is common in Saudi athletes, particularly footballers. Most cases resolve with conservative treatment like rest and anti-inflammatory drugs.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Sports Medicine
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Osteitis pubis is a painful condition affecting the pubic symphysis.
  • Traumatic etiology is often implicated, especially in athletes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the clinical, radiological, and etiological features of traumatic aseptic osteitis pubis in Saudi athletes.
  • To evaluate the outcomes of various management strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective study of 78 Saudi athletes diagnosed with traumatic aseptic osteitis pubis.
  • Clinical assessment of symptoms, radiological evaluation of the pubic symphysis, and review of treatment outcomes.

Main Results:

  • Groin pain, lower abdominal pain, and suprapubic tenderness were common symptoms.
