Abstract
Groin pain is a common problem that is known to be a complex issue. The wide variety of possible pathologies in numerous anatomical structures contributes to this complexity. For patients who have anterior hip pain in Patrick's test and tenderness at Scarpa's triangle, we perform periarticular debridement based on the hypothesis that rectus femoris tendinosis, subacute/chronic fibrosis of the anterior inferior iliac spine fat pad, and gluteal muscle adhesion are responsible for such anterior hip pain. This Technical note illustrates the surgical procedure of periarticular debridement for extra-articular pathology-associated anterior hip pain. Repair of the injured labrum and correction of femoroacetabular impingement deformity have never been performed in this cohort. Arthroscopic periarticular debridement is a reliable surgical technique that can relieve anterior hip pain and provide a rapid to return to normal activities.
