Abstract

The purpose of this study was to describe the application, technique, and results of symphyseal cleft injection in athletes with osteitis pubis. Symphyseal cleft injection is a useful technique for the diagnosis and treatment of osteitis pubis in athletes. The procedure is well tolerated and may facilitate early resumption of competitive duties.
