Clinical-Radiological Presentation 18

Question

Persistent and progressive pain in the left hip

Is the X-ray normal?
What is the clinical hypothesis then?
What radiological approach?

ANSWER

Look at the MRI: This small line, white...or black...in the femoral head allows for the diagnosis of aseptic necrosis of the hip.
Note that the sphericity of the head is preserved...it is therefore a grade I.
