1. The iliopsoas is sometimes considered a member of the anterior compartment muscles, 2. Iliopsoas and iliotibial band lengthening can be done arthroscopically.3. The iliac subtendinous bursa lies between the lesser trochanter and the attachment of the iliopsoas . 4. The iliopsoas is involved in flexion and lateral rotation ( supination ) of the thigh. 5. Its floor is formed by the pectineus and adductor longus muscles medially and iliopsoas muscle laterally. 6. This large angle significantly stretches, and thus demonstrates excellent flexibility of, the hamstring and iliopsoas muscles. 7. The two muscles unite to form the iliopsoas muscle which is inserted on the lesser trochanter of the femur. 8. In patients with persistently painful iliopsoas symptoms surgical release of the contracted iliopsoas tendon has been used since 1984. 9. In patients with persistently painful iliopsoas symptoms surgical release of the contracted iliopsoas tendon has been used since 1984. 10.
