Abstract

|
Hip pain is a common but nonspecific symptom that has many etiologies. Due to the complex anatomy of the hip and pelvis, locating the exact origin of pain may be difficult. Soft tissue diseases around the hip are relatively rare and their clinical symptoms are often nonspecific. For such patients, it is necessary to understand various hip diseases, and do proper history taking and examination to correctly diagnose and treat soft tissue diseases of the hip. Advances in imaging studies such as MRI and ultrasonography can provide accurate information on soft tissues. This article reviews the soft tissue diseases of the hip that are experienced by clinics. It may be helpful in the differential diagnosis of hip pain arising from soft tissue structures and in the treatment of such diseases.
