| Popis: | We present a case of a high-level rugby player with severe groin pain following a partial rupture of his left adductor longus enthesis during a game. Conservative treatment proved unsuccessful and the athlete had persistent symptoms, affecting his quality of life and ability to play sports. Further assessments revealed a large bony spur/enthesophyte at adductor longus origin. The patient underwent a successful surgical resection of the active bone formation. |
