title: [Inguinal pain in sportmen: clinical and radiological examinations].
abstract: Pain of the inguinal region is a frequent but difficult diagnostic problem. It may be induced by accidents, overload due to sports or profession as well as daily life activities. Numerous anatomic structures of the inguinal or hip region may be injured, but one should also think about adjacent structures as the bowel, uro-genital system, spine and nerves. The goal of this article is to describe which clinical and imaging parameters allow to establish a correct diagnosis for each patient.
