[Tendinitis of the hip region].
Tendinitis and bursitis are less common around the hip than around the shoulder. Nevertheless, they must be recognized to avoid unnecessary and costly diagnostic errors. Their various clinical forms are studied in detail. Tendino-bursitis of the gluteus medius muscle is the most frequent in its subacute form, but it is rare in its acute, pseudo-gouty form. Calcification of the reflected tendon of the rectus femoris muscle often closely resembles arthritis of the hip. Synovial cysts of the psoas bursa and rupture of the gluteus medius tendon are rare but must be known. Local injections of corticosteroids play an important part in the treatment of these diseases.
