Groin pain can be caused by the soft tissue inflammation in the form of tendonitis of the iliopsoas tendon

Summary
After total hip arthroplasty some patients continue to have groin pain. Conditions that can cause groin pain include infection, aseptic loosening and soft tissue inflammation. Groin pain can be caused by the soft tissue inflammation in the form of tendonitis of the iliopsoas tendon. Most common site of iliopsoas impingement is at the anterior rim of the acetabulum are prominent acetabular component, extrusion of cement, reinforcement acetabular ring, retroverted or lateralised socket and psoas muscle can be irritated by screws for acetabular fixation which have penetrated through the ilium. When replacing the hip joint one needs to pay careful attention to the anterior rim of the acetabular component to ensure that it does not protrude beyond the bony acetabulum and potentially impinge on the iliopsoas tendon
