“…In tennis players it may result from a strong eccentric stress upon the quadratus femoris muscle in an attempt to control hip internal rotation during the follow-through phase of serving [2]. On the other hand, a congenitally smaller distance between the lesser trochanter and the ischial tuberosity is a predisposing factor for impingement of the quadratus femoris muscle [8].…”

“…The immediate and correct diagnosis is a challenge because of its rarity and similarities to other disorders that cause groin pain. Only a few cases of partial and complete rupture of quadratus femoris muscle in the young active population have been reported in the literature [1,2]. In all cases, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was crucial both in correct diagnosis and guidance of treatment.…”

Persistent sciatica induced by quadratus femoris muscle tear and treated by surgical decompression: a case report

IntroductionQuadratus femoris tear is an uncommon injury, which is only rarely reported in the literature. In the majority of cases the correct diagnosis is delayed due to non-specific symptoms and signs. A magnetic resonance imaging scan is crucial in the differential diagnosis since injuries to contiguous soft tissues may present with similar symptoms. Presentation with sciatica is not reported in the few cases existing in the English literature and the reported treatment has always been conservative.Case presentationWe report here on a case of quadratus femoris tear in a 22-year-old Greek woman who presented with persistent sciatica. She was unresponsive to conservative measures and so was treated with surgical decompression.ConclusionThe correct diagnosis of quadratus muscle tear is a challenge for physicians. The treatment is usually conservative, but in cases of persistent sciatica surgical decompression is an alternative option.

“…Initial management may be conservative treatment that includes rest, activity restriction, antiinflammatory nonsteroidal medications, percutaneous ultrasound therapy 18 and physical therapy to include stretching and strengthening of the quadratus femoris and core musculature 25 . CT-guided or ultrasound-guided injections with anesthetic and steroids can be used as a diagnostic test and for symptomatic relief 6,26 .…”

Ischiofemoral impingement is newly recognized extracapsular cause of atypical hip and groin pain. Ischiofemoral impingement was first defined by Johnson in 1977. It is characterized by a narrowed space between the ischial tuberosity and the lesser trochanter, associated with changes in ischiofemoral space . The diagnosis of the ischiofemoral impingement is complex. Normal radiological and ultrasound appearances may be seen in ischiofemoral impingement patients with atypical hip pain. It is important to have a focus on the symptoms , through the history taking, physical examination, and appropriate imaging studies of the hip.In this study, we aimed to review the etiology, clinical presentation, imaging modalities, differential diagnosis and treatment options of ischiofemoral impingement.

“…Subsequent MRI case studies also focused on the traumatic origin of QFMC (3)(4)(5). This QFMC was interpreted as the result of muscle strain or tearing of the QFM.…”
