title: [Anatomic bases of groin strain].
abstract: It was attempted to identify the anatomical bases of the syndrome frequently encountered in sportsmen and women and commonly known under the all-encompassing term of "groin strain". The continuity of fasciae and the intersection of the insertion tendinous fibers of the abdominal and thigh muscles in the pre-pubic region binds the muscle elements firmly together and helps to understand why the disorder occurs and how to treat it. In contrast, the articular portion made up of the symphysis pubis, which is greatly exerted both during movement and at rest, has early signs of ageing making articular strain much more difficult to treat.
