A Peritrochanteric Diseases Management Technical Note

Dante Parodi*, Carlos Tobar, Joaquin Lara and Maria Jesus Haydar

Peritrochanteric diseases are recurrent cause of lateral hip pain that usually affects middle age and active women. Despite of questionable results, classically they have been managed in a conservative manner. Surgical techniques are reserved for those who had unsatisfactory results with conservative treatment. In a prospective case series of thirty-five patients we developed arthroscopic surgical treatment that included among the bursa resection, the release of the iliotibial band. 97% of the patients showed satisfactory results. In this article we describe our surgical approach and the middle term follow-up results.
