Iliopsoas tendonitis following total hip arthroplasty (THA) can be challenging to diagnose due to the many causes of postoperative groin pain. This case involves a 66-year-old female with right-sided hip and groin pain and a palpable mass, 3 years post-THA. Initial recovery was unremarkable until the sudden onset of symptoms after exercise. The patient presented with a palpable mass on the groin area and pain and underwent several consults with general surgery and orthopaedics. A series of unremarkable radiogram, biopsies, and negative infectious workup prompted revision surgery, which included acetabular component revision and iliopsoas tenotomy. The patient experienced significant pain relief and improved mobility postrevision. This case highlights a complication of THA and the complexity of diagnosing and treating iliopsoas tendonitis post-THA.
由于全髋关节置换术(THA)后腹股沟疼痛的原因众多,髂腰肌肌腱炎的诊断可能具有挑战性。本病例涉及一名66岁女性,在全髋关节置换术后3年出现右侧髋部和腹股沟疼痛以及可触及的肿块。最初恢复情况良好,直到运动后突然出现症状。患者腹股沟区有可触及的肿块并伴有疼痛,曾多次咨询普通外科和骨科医生。一系列无异常的X线片、活检及阴性的感染检查结果促使进行翻修手术,包括髋臼部件翻修和髂腰肌肌腱切断术。翻修术后患者疼痛明显缓解,活动能力改善。本病例突出了全髋关节置换术的一种并发症以及全髋关节置换术后髂腰肌肌腱炎诊断和治疗的复杂性。
