Abstract

ObjectiveThe overuse injuries in the hip joint occur commonly in sports practitioners and currently due to technical advances in diagnostic imaging, especially magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), are often misdiagnosed. Recently, a group of people were reported, all female, with pain and swelling in the pelvic region. T2-weighted MRI showed increased signal in the enthesis of the iliotibial band (ITB) along the lower border of the iliac tubercle. We report a case of a 34 year old woman, non-professional runner, with pain at the iliac crest with no history of trauma and whose MRI was compatible with the proximal iliotibial band syndrome.
