Iliopsoas bursitis: diagnosis by MRI.
Iliopsoas bursitis is an unusual cause of hip pain. The condition may be due to athletic activity or may be secondary to a variety of inflammatory etiologies. An understanding of the anatomy and biomechanics of this structure is necessary to ensure prompt and appropriate radiologic diagnosis and clinical treatment. We report two cases of iliopsoas bursitis diagnosed with MRI and review the anatomy, pathophysiology, and treatment of this condition.
