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 should be taken?

ANSWER

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