Summary

Surgical treatment for internal snapping hip syndrome effectively improves symptoms for most patients. Arthroscopic approaches, often addressing intra-articular hip pathology, show fewer complications than open surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Hip Arthroscopy

Background:

  • Internal snapping hip syndrome involves the iliopsoas tendon.
  • Treatment options include open and arthroscopic iliopsoas release.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of open and arthroscopic iliopsoas release for internal snapping hip syndrome.
  • To assess the role of intra-articular pathology in internal snapping hip.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of 12 reports from 4 databases.
  • Data tabulation on surgical procedures and outcomes.

Main Results:

  • Surgical intervention improves symptoms in most patients with internal snapping hip.
  • Arthroscopic release is linked to fewer complications than open release.

  • Intra-articular pathology is frequently associated with snapping hip syndrome.

    • Conclusions:

    • Arthroscopic iliopsoas release may be advantageous due to lower complication rates.
    • Internal snapping hip may often stem from underlying intra-articular hip pathology.
    • Further research is needed to compare surgical versus non-surgical treatments.
