Abstract
Synovial plicae are detected most readily by diagnostic arthroscopy. As arthroscopic techniques are applied more frequently to various joints, it should be expected that the diagnosis of plica syndrome will become more common. The authors present a case of symptomatic plica in the hip of a competitive runner, who was treated with arthroscopic resection.
