Overview

The ilio-psoas conflict is a commonly accepted complication after total hip replacement, often linked to a mispositioning of the acetabular prosthetic component that conflicts with the ilio-psoas tendon. To correct these pains, a psoas tenotomy can be proposed. The results proven by the literature are very satisfactory. Psoas tenotomy is performed endoscopically, arthroscopically, or more rarely open.

The contribution of echo surgery allows to limit the scar ransom but also to free itself from a complex infrastructure to the operating room including an arthroscopy column and an intraoperative fluoroscopy for a conventional tenotomy, This also saves procedural and installation time.

No studies to date have described ultrasound-assisted psoas tenotomy Yhe investigators conducted a cadaveric study of the feasibility of psoas tenotomy under ultrasound that confirms the feasibility of this technique and the safety of the gesture for the surrounding anatomical structures.

The objectives of this study are to assess the feasibility, pain and functional outcomes of ultrasound-assisted psoas tenotomy in patients with ilio-psoas conflict after total hip replacement.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
