Ultrasound-guided pain interventions in the hip region

To accomplish successful ultrasound-guided interventions for the management of pain in the hip region, a thorough understanding of the essential anatomy of the hip joint and adjacent structures is required. This is also the basis for the acquisition of high-quality dynamic real-time sonoanatomical images. This review article addresses the anatomy, sonoanatomy, and ultrasound-guided interventional approach to 3 key structures in this region—the intra-articular hip, the femoral nerve, and the obturator nerve—using important anatomical landmarks.
