Abstract

Hip pain in dancers is typically attributed to musculoskeletal etiologies due to local "wear-and-tear"; however, one must be aware of neurologic etiologies that may present with additional clinical findings and require specialized treatment. This article explores the presentation, potential causes, suggested work-up, and treatment options for femoral neuropathy, lateral femoral cutaneous syndrome, and piriformis syndrome.
