Pubic Inguinal Pain Syndrome - Sports Hernia ?
G. Campanelli
Received: 28 September 2009 / Accepted: 4 December 2009 / Published online: 6 January 2010
Sports hernia (SH) is a controversial condition which presents
itself as chronic groin pain. It is responsible for signiWcant
time away from work and sports competition, with
an incidence of between 0.5 and 6.2% [1–3]. Groin injury is
common in soccer and ice hockey players, but SH can be
encountered in a variety of sports, and even in normally
physically active people [1, 3]. For this reason, we think
that it is more appropriate to speak of pubic inguinal pain
syndrome (PIPS).
Over the past decade, the number of sports-related
injuries has increased as a function of increased athletic
activities, and the demand for an early return to work and
competitive sports puts pressure on the doctor for immediate
diagnosis and treatment [1–3].
The anatomy involved, diagnostic criteria and treatment
modalities are inconsistently described in the medical,
surgical and orthopaedic literature. In fact, there is no
evidence-based consensus available to guide the decisionmaking,
and most of the studies are level IV investigations
[1, 3, 4].
