Optimal treatment for iliopsoas tendinitis after total hip arthroplasty (THA) with cup malposition, iliopsoas release alone or with cup revision, is controversial, particularly in young, active patients. Moreover, arthroscopic iliopsoas tendon (IPT) release in these patients has been rarely described, and midterm effects of this procedure on THA longevity and groin pain recurrence remain unclear. We performed arthroscopic IPT release after THA and report midterm outcomes in two young patients with acetabular cup malposition.
