Abstract
- We report on the case of a 52-year-old female who presented with a stress fracture after undergoing an endoscopic resection of the lesser trochanter in ischiofemoral impingement, which was resistant to maximal conservative treatment. To the best of our knowledge, this complication has not been previously described. Non–weight-bearing and intravenous alendronic acid were prescribed for management. No additional surgery was required. The patient was pain free with the ability to perform sports on the same level as before and had no complaints.
