[Hematoma of the psoas. Comparative diagnostic contributions of ultrasonography and x-ray computed tomography].
A 11 cases study of hematoma of the iliacus muscle underlines better results obtained by C.T. Scanner compared to those of ultrasonography examination in term of definite diagnoses. Comparison of density values and repeated examination were useful to assert diagnosis and to appreciate the course of the illness. Only C.T. Scanner was able to show which portion of the muscle was concerned. Authors correlated the C.T. Scanner results to the nature of the entrapment neuropathy clinically found: an isolated femoral nerve palsy or association with an obturator nerve dysfunction.
