“…63 Sometimes associated with greater trochanteric bursitis, pain may also be characterized as a burning or deep, dull ache over the posterior hip or lateral thigh and can become sharp when moving the affected hip from flexion to extension. 64 The most aggravating factors include active abduction of the hip, prolonged sitting, climbing stairs, and side-lying positions. 64,65 A recent systematic review and meta-analysis by Reiman et al deemed 4 clinical tests to be both valid and reliable for the diagnosis of gluteal tendinopathy: Trendelenburg sign, resisted hip abduction, resisted hip internal rotation, and the resisted hip external derotation tests (Video 2).…”

Objective: The purpose of this study was to present a narrative review of the literature of musculoskeletal causes of adult hip pain, with special attention to history, physical examination, and diagnostic imaging. Methods: A narrative review of the English medical literature was performed by using the search terms "hip pain" AND "anterior," "lateral," and "posterior." Additionally, specific entities of hip pain or pain referral sources to the hip were searched for. We used the PubMed search engine through January 15, 2016. Results: Musculoskeletal sources of adult hip pain can be divided into posterior, lateral, and anterior categories. For posterior hip pain, select considerations include lumbar spine and femoroacetabular joint referral, sacroiliac joint pathology, piriformis syndrome, and proximal hamstring tendinopathy. Gluteal tendinopathy and iliotibial band thickening are the most common causes of lateral hip pain. Anterior hip pain is further divided into causes that are intra-articular (ie, labral tear, osteoarthritis, osteonecrosis) and extra-articular (ie, snapping hip and inguinal disruption [athletic pubalgia]). Entrapment neuropathies and myofascial pain should also be considered in each compartment. A limited number of historical features and physical examination tests for evaluation of adult hip pain are supported by the literature and are discussed in this article. Depending on the clinical differential, the gamut of diagnostic imaging modalities recommended for accurate diagnosis include plain film radiography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, skeletal scintigraphy, and ultrasonography. Conclusions: The evaluation of adult hip pain is challenging. Clinicians should consider posterior, lateral, and anterior sources of pain while keeping in mind that these may overlap.

“…Numerous alternative surgical procedures attempt to treat patients with GTPS including open and arthroscopic bursectomy, iliotibial band Z-lengthening, open or arthroscopic tendon repair, and trochanteric osteotomy [13]. In contrast to some other surgical methods, GFT aims to decompress the greater trochanter with excision of the bursa tissue.…”

Purpose Surgery for greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) may be indicated for cases refractory to conservative measures. We aim to evaluate patient reported outcomes and adverse events following surgery. Methods Postal questionnaires were used to evaluate a consecutive series of 61 bursectomy and gluteal fascia transposition (GFT) procedures. Study outcomes were Oxford hip score, satisfaction score, visual analogue score, pain lying on the affected side, and the duration of pain relief after surgery. Results We received responses regarding 52 procedures at a median of 34 months follow-up; 40% of cases of GTPS occurred following THA. We observed a bimodal distribution of satisfaction scores. The early post-operative complication rate was 13%; an additional seven cases (12%) required further surgery at a later date. Idiopathic GTPS had significantly better post-operative satisfaction than GTPS following THA, 87.5 vs. 37.5 (p = 0.006); Oxford hip scores, 35 vs. 15 (p = 0.015); and visual analogue scores, 20 vs. 73 (p = 0.005). Conclusion We observed overall poor outcomes, significant complications and concerning reoperation rates. Cases with previous joint replacement were associated with the worst outcomes.
