Abstract
Isolated spontaneous tears in the non-insertional portion of the iliopsoas tendon without any underlying injury are uncommon, especially among elderly individuals. We describe the case of an 88-year-old man who experienced right groin pain caused by a spontaneous non-insertional tear in the iliopsoas tendon identified through ultrasound and confirmed via MRI. Ultrasound revealed hypoechogenicity in the non-insertional portion of the iliopsoas tendon, leading to quick identification and conservative treatment and resulting in positive functional outcomes. This case report emphasises the significance of considering spontaneous non-insertional iliopsoas tendon tears when evaluating cases of acute groin pain. This finding underscores the effectiveness of ultrasound as an initial diagnostic tool for the early cost-effective diagnosis of soft tissue injuries around the hip joint, especially in low-resource settings. Timely detection and management can help avoid unnecessary operative interventions and facilitate faster and better recovery.

Abstract
CASE We present an unusual case of bilateral femoral neck fatigue fractures in a 28-year-old pregnant woman at the 18th week of gestation successfully treated through operative intervention involving consecutive total hip arthroplasty and internal fixation within the same procedure, resulting in favorable clinical outcomes. CONCLUSION Current clinical practices suggest that a restricted use of plain radiographs, even those involving the pelvis in pregnant women carries a minimal risk to the fetus and is not contraindicated. Magnetic resonance imaging proved valuable for differential diagnosis, contrasting with sonography.

Abstract
Importance Peripartum separation of the pubic symphysis is a rare but potentially severe complication of childbirth, which may lead to prolonged immobilization. Thus, prompt diagnosis and treatment are paramount. Objective The purpose of this review is to define peripartum separation of the pubic symphysis and provide a thorough review of its etiology, clinical manifestations, diagnostic imaging techniques, management, and prognosis. Evidence Acquisition This was a literature review using PubMed and Google Scholar. Results Peripartum pubic symphysis separation is defined as disruption of the pubic symphysis joint and ligamentous structures with greater than 1 cm of separation during delivery. Risk factors include fetal macrosomia, nulliparity, and precipitous labor. Patients often present with a sensation of something "giving way" in the pubic symphysis area at the time of delivery, or with severe pain in the pubic symphysis region with attempted mobilization postpartum. In severe cases, associated hematomas, pelvic fractures, sacroiliac joint disruption, and urinary tract injury may be seen. Imaging such as x-ray or ultrasound may be used to confirm the diagnosis. Although most patients recover well with conservative management, orthopedic surgical intervention may be indicated in more severe or unresolved cases. Conclusions and Relevance Pubic symphysis separation is increasingly identified peripartum due enhanced accessibility and utilization of imaging modalities. It can be debilitating and lead to prolonged immobility postpartum. Therefore, early recognition and diagnosis are important, as this can guide decision-making for management. A multidisciplinary team approach, including coordination with obstetrics, orthopedic surgery, physical therapy, and occupational therapy should be used for early detection and treatment to ensure optimal patient outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The goal of this study was to investigate prevalence and morphometric parameters of pubic ligaments and the interpubic disk and its cavity using imaging methods for use in clinical medicine. METHODS Pubic symphysis morphology was investigated in 652 patients (348 women and 304 men), from which 449 CT scans and 203 MR scans were available. The average age of men was 48 years and women 39 years. Investigated parameters included dimensions of the interpubic disk, visibility and width of the reinforcing ligaments, and visibility, dimensions, and location of the symphysial cavity. The results were compared with MR scans of 20 healthy volunteers and 21 dissected anatomic specimens. RESULTS The craniocaudal, ventrodorsal, and mediolateral diameters of the pubic disk were 36 to 37.7, 14.8 to 15.2, and 2.2 to 4.2 mm in women and 42 to 42.3, 18.6 to 19, and 2.4 to 4.5 mm in men, respectively. Higher age correlated with shorter mediolateral diameter and larger craniocaudal and ventrodorsal diameters. The superior pubic ligament was visible in 93.1% of men (1.44 mm thick) and in 100% of women (1.7 mm); the inferior pubic ligament in 89.7% of men (1.74 mm) and 88% of women (1.95 mm), the anterior pubic ligament in 96.6% of men (1.5 mm) and 82% of women (1.34 mm); and the posterior pubic ligament in 65.5% of men (1.18 mm) and 63.7% of women (0.83 mm). A symphysial cavity was found in 24% of men and 22.9% of women, with craniocaudal, ventrodorsal, and mediolateral dimensions of 13, 10.7, and 3.2 mm in men and 9.5, 10.7, and 3 mm in women, respectively. CONCLUSION The presented morphologic parameters provide an anatomic reference for diagnostics of pathologic conditions of the pubic symphysis. The following anatomic structures should be added to the official anatomic terminology: symphysial cavity (cavitas symphysialis), retropubic eminence (eminentia retropubica), anterior pubic ligament (ligamentum pubicum anterius), and posterior pubic ligament (ligamentum pubicum posterius).

Abstract
Purpose The aim of this article is to illustrate the recent framework necessary to standardize studies on groin pain and review the existing literature on groin pain in football. Methods The common pathological processes underlying groin pain such as muscle, tendon or ligament strain, bone injury or fracture, sport hernia, bursitis, osteitis pubis, and hip-related diseases have been reviewed and current management options have been considered. Results Groin pain is considered a pain in pubic or lower abdominal or adductors region which can be monolateral or bilateral. It is common in high-intensity team sports and can negatively affect an athlete's professional carrier, causing serious disruption in the performance. Despite a high prevalence of groin pain in athletes, diagnosis and management of the underlying pathological processes remain a challenge for surgeons, radiologists, and physiotherapists alike. Conclusion A multidisciplinary approach is essential for patients with groin pain allowing prompt diagnosis and initiation of treatment thus facilitating more rapid return to play and preventing potential long-term sequelae of chronic groin pathology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inguinal disruption and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) are well-recognized sources of groin pain in athletes; however, the relationship between inguinal disruption and FAI remains unclear. In cases of dual pathology, where both entities coexist, there is no definitive consensus regarding which pathology should be prioritized for treatment in the first instance. PURPOSE (1) To examine the 2-year effectiveness and clinical outcome in athletes presenting with dual pathology in which the FAI component alone was treated with arthroscopic deformity correction. (2) To compare 2-year patient-reported outcome measures between athletes undergoing only hip arthroscopy (HA) and athletes undergoing groin repair and HA. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS All patients undergoing HA for the treatment of FAI with concomitant clinical signs of inguinal disruption at initial consultation were between 2010 and 2016 were included in this study. Inclusion criteria were male sex, age <40 years, and involvement in competitive sporting activity. Athletes with previous HA on the symptomatic side, Tönnis grade >1, or lateral center-edge angle <25° were excluded. Revision HA or subsequent groin surgery was documented. Outcome evaluation consisted of validated patient-reported outcome measures (modified Harris Hip Score; University of California, Los Angeles Activity Scale; 36-Item Short Form Health Survey; Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index) completed preoperatively and a minimum 2 years postoperatively. The minimal clinically important difference was assessed by using a distribution-based technique (SD, 0.5) and an anchor-based technique (percentage of possible improvement). Level of satisfaction and return to play were assessed. RESULTS A total of 113 cases of dual pathology were included in 91 patients with a mean ± SD age of 26.3 ± 5.1 years. The index surgical procedure was HA for 104 cases (92%) and groin repair for 9 (8%). For patients undergoing HA as the index procedure, 98.1% (102/104 cases) were successfully followed up to establish survivorship. In 89.2% (91/102 cases), no additional groin surgery was required. In 11 cases (10.8%), additional groin surgery was required for persisting inguinal-related groin pain. At 2 years after the operation, there was no difference for any patient-reported outcome measure (P > .099), improvement from baseline (P > .070), or proportion of cases achieving the minimal clinically important difference (P > .120) between the HA-only group and the group undergoing HA and groin repair at any stage. There was also no difference between groups in terms of return-to-play rate (P = .509) or levels of satisfaction (pain, P = .204; performance, P = .345). CONCLUSION In patients with dual pathology, treatment of the FAI component alone using arthroscopic hip surgery results in a successful outcome without need for groin repair in 89.2% of cases. No statistical difference in clinical outcome 2 years after surgery was observed between athletes undergoing 1 procedure (HA alone) and those undergoing 2 procedures (HA and groin repair at any stage).

Abstract
Optimal development of a fetus is made possible due to a lot of adaptive changes in the woman’s body. Some of the most important modifications occur in the musculoskeletal system. At the time of childbirth, natural widening of the pubic symphysis and the sacroiliac joints occur. Those changes are often reversible after childbirth. Peripartum pubic symphysis separation is a relatively rare disease and there is no homogeneous approach to treatment. The paper presents the current standards of diagnosis and treatment of pubic diastasis based on orthopedic and gynecological indications.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the prevalence of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and define prognostic factors of the return-to-play time in young athletes with groin pain. METHODS A total of 1091 consecutive athletes were retrospectively screened; 651 athletes, aged 16-40 years, with pain in the groin regions were assessed using MRI. Of these athletes, 356 were included for analysing the time to return-to-play. Univariate and multiple linear regression analyses were used to determine the associations between the time to return-to-play (primary outcome variable) and the following variables: age, sex, body mass index, type of sports, Hip Sports Activity Scale, clear trauma history, and 12 MRI findings. RESULTS Four MRI findings, including cleft sign, pubic bone marrow oedema of both the superior and inferior ramus, and central disc protrusion of the pubic symphysis, appeared together in more than 44% of the cases. The median time to return-to-play was 24.7 weeks for athletes with a cleft sign on MRI, which was significantly longer than the 11.9 weeks for athletes without the sign. The median time to return-to-play was 20.8 weeks for athletes with BMI > 24, which was significantly longer than the 13.6 weeks for athletes with BMI ≦ 24. In multiple linear regression analysis of 356 athletes, in whom hip-related groin pain was excluded, and who were followed-up until the return-to-play, the body mass index and cleft sign were the independent factors associated with a delayed return-to-play. In contrast, iliopsoas muscle strain and other muscle injuries were associated with a shorter return-to-play. CONCLUSIONS Multiple MRI findings were present in almost half of all cases. Body mass index and the cleft sign were independently associated with a delayed return-to-play time in young athletes suffering from groin pain. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pyramidalis is a lower anterior abdominal wall muscle that is considered vestigial and shows variations in prevalence and size. It's been utilized as an anatomical landmark and harvested for use in various surgical procedures. Despite knowledge of its clinical importance, data on the prevalence of pyramidalis remain absent from the Kenyan population with few studies globally reporting on its pubo-umbilical index. We therefore aimed to determine the prevalence and relative lengths (pubo-umbilical index) of pyramidalis muscle in a sample Kenyan population. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-two cadavers (41 males, 11 females) from the Department of Human Anatomy, University of Nairobi were used. Prevalence and length of the muscle (l) were established, and the distance between pubic symphysis and umbilicus (L) measured and used to calculate pubo-umbilical index (l/L ×100%). Independent and paired T tests were done, using SPSS® version 22. A p value of ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant at a 95% confidence interval. RESULTS Pyramidalis was present in 84% (44) of cadavers; 83% (43) bilaterally, 2% (1) unilaterally, and 85.4% (35) in males, 81.8% (9) in females. Mean length in males and females was 71.8 ± 35 mm and 63.5 ± 37.5 mm, respectively. Mean pubo-umbilical index was 38% ± 18 (39 % ± 18 males, 35% ± 19 females). No statistically significant difference was found. CONCLUSION Pyramidalis is a highly prevalent muscle in the Kenyan population and, hence, could be exploited for its clinical and surgical utilities. The muscle terminates largely within the 2nd quarter (25-50%) of the infra-umbilical linea alba measured from pubic symphysis. Its pubo-umbilical index would be useful to surgeons making midline infra-umbilical incisions and performing procedures involving the muscle.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Core muscle injuries are common injuries in athletes involved in high speed side-to-side acceleration movements. The term core muscle injury encapsulates several different injuries that occur in the pelvic region that have similar presentations. Along with a good history and physical examination, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be a helpful tool in the diagnostic process. Correct orientation and protocols are needed to show the correct anatomy with an MRI. Furthermore, to determine the exact etiology of the core muscle injury, it is important to know which structures are likely to be involved and be able to recognize the patterns of injury on imaging.

Abstract
Core muscle injury is a common but difficult problem to treat. Although it can affect all individuals, it is most commonly seen in male athletes in cutting, twisting, pivoting, and explosive sports. Owing to the high association of femoroacetabular impingement, we believe these individuals are best treated with a multidisciplinary approach involving both orthopedic and general surgeons. Conservative treatment should be the first step in management. When conservative means are unsuccessful, operative intervention to correct all the pathologic issues around the pubis can have extremely high success rates.

Abstract
Chronic pelvic pain is an important but underrecognized cause of morbidity in men. While there is abundant literature discussing female pelvic pain and the diagnostic role of imaging, much less attention has been given to imaging of non-gynecologic causes of chronic pelvic pain. Chronic pelvic pain in men can be a challenge to diagnose as pain may arise from visceral, musculoskeletal, or neurovascular pathology. Imaging of the pelvic viscera has been covered in detail elsewhere in this edition and therefore will not be reviewed here. We will focus upon topics less familiar to the abdominal radiologist, including imaging of pelvic floor, musculoskeletal, and neurovascular pathology.

Abstract
The diagnosis of iliopsoas synovial cyst is a rare finding. The normal approach to treat this condition has been conservative therapies or open surgery, with its associated complications and morbidity. The arthroscopic – endoscopic surgery is less invasive and with an increase in complications and days of hospitalization. We report the case of a 70-year old woman with clinical and imaging signs of a fluid-filled cyst near iliopsoas distal tendon. After fluid aspiration, the patient reported symptom-free interval of several weeks, but then groin pain and swelling feeling return, increased with hip movements. The cyst was removed through arthroscopy approach and the iliopsoas tendon was released. The removal of iliopsoas synovial cyst is necessary to avoid complications such as pain and functional limits. Arthroscopy has the advantage of less soft-tissue damage and quicker recovery. The treatment of associated tendon pathology can be done. Hip arthroscopy can be a safe and effective technique for the removal of iliopsoas synovial cyst. (www.actabiomedica.it)
