  • Title: US-guided Musculoskeletal Interventions in the Hip with MRI and US Correlation.
    Author: Blaichman JI, Chan BY, Michelin P, Lee KS.
    Journal: Radiographics; 2020; 40(1):181-199. PubMed ID: 31756123.
    Abstract:
    Hip pain is a commonly reported primary symptom with many potential causes. The causal entity can remain elusive, even after clinical history review, physical examination, and diagnostic imaging. Although there are many options for definitive treatment, many of these procedures are invasive, are associated with risk of morbidity, and can be unsuccessful, with lengthy revision surgery required. Percutaneous musculoskeletal intervention is an attractive alternative to more invasive procedures and an indispensable tool for evaluating and managing hip pain. US is an ideal modality for imaging guidance owing to its low cost, portability, lack of ionizing radiation, and capability for real-time visualization of soft-tissue and bone structures during intervention. The authors review both common and advanced US-guided procedures involving the pelvis and hip, including anesthetic and corticosteroid injections, percutaneous viscosupplementation, platelet-rich plasma injection to promote tendon healing, and microwave ablation for neurolysis. In addition, specific anatomic structures implicated in hip pain are discussed and include the hip joint, iliopsoas bursa, ilioinguinal nerve, lateral femoral cutaneous nerve, greater trochanteric bursa, iliotibial band, ischiogluteal bursa, hamstring tendon origin, piriformis muscle, and quadratus femoris muscle. The relevant US-depicted anatomy and principles underlying technically successful interventions also are discussed. Familiarity with these techniques can aid radiologists in assuming an important role in the care of patients with hip pain. ©RSNA, 2019.
