Mass measuring 7.3 x 4.5 x 4.9 cm with mixed echotexture in the front of the right hip, mostly hypoechoic with echogenic areas. The mass abuts the femoral bone.
Under local anesthesia with 7 ml of lidocaine 1%, four aspirations from the mass substance with 14G-18G needles. Transparent, whitish gelatinous substance received. Part of the material was placed on 8 slides for cytologic evaluation and part was transferred into a sterile stoppered syringe. In addition, two core biopsies were taken from the echogenic material with a Magnum device using a 14G needle. Two good-quality cores of the gelatinous/tissue material were obtained.
