📌 Iliotibial Band Friction Syndrome

Iliotibial band friction syndrome is a common cause of lateral knee pain associated with intense exercise, such as long-distance running, football, and cycling. 

It results from chronic friction between the iliotibial band and the lateral femoral condyle during knee flexion.

✅ MRI Findings

  • MRI often shows ill-defined high T2 signal intensity or edema within a compartment-like space bounded laterally by the iliotibial tract and medially by the lateral femoral condyle, lateral meniscus, and meniscocapsular ligaments.
  • Thickening of the iliotibial band may or may not be present.
  • In some cases, a discrete fluid collection develops within the same space deep to the distal iliotibial band, representing adventitial bursal formation.

 

  • Edema superficial to the iliotibial band is uncommon in friction syndrome and is typically associated with acute trauma.
  • Thickening of the iliotibial band itself is usually not observed.
