Sportsman's hernia (SH) is a controversial cause of chronic groin pain in athletes. Most commonly seen in soccer and ice hockey players, SH can be encountered in a variety of sports and in a variety of age groups. Although there are several reports of SH in women, it is almost exclusively found in men. SH is largely a clinical diagnosis of exclusion. History of chronic groin pain that is nonresponsive to treatment should raise suspicion of SH, but physical examination findings are subtle and most diagnostic tests do not definitively confirm the diagnosis. Conservative treatment of SH does not often result in resolution of symptoms. Surgical intervention results in pain-free return of full activities in a majority of cases.
运动员疝（SH）是运动员慢性腹股沟疼痛的一个存在争议的病因。最常见于足球和冰球运动员，在各种运动项目和不同年龄组中都可能出现SH。虽然有关于女性SH的几份报告，但几乎仅见于男性。SH很大程度上是一种排除性临床诊断。对治疗无反应的慢性腹股沟疼痛病史应引起对SH的怀疑，但体格检查结果不明显，大多数诊断测试也不能明确确诊。SH的保守治疗通常不能使症状缓解。手术干预在大多数情况下能使患者无痛地完全恢复活动。
