[Examination method for identification of snapping hip (author's transl)].
An examination method is described for the identification of the snapping hip 30-40 degrees of bending, adduction and alternating anterior and exterior rotation of the hip joint. Through the maximal pre-tension of the tractus iliotibialis it is possible to definitely prove the existence even of minor snapping. In view of the fact that the examination method is a passive one, it can also be employed intra-operatively for direct control of the result of the operation.
