Presentation
Right hip pain.
Note: This case has been tagged as "legacy" as it no longer meets image preparation and/or other case publication guidelines.
Relatively well-defined area of lucency (with somewhat hazy lateral border) in the upper aspect of the right acetabulum. No obvious calcification within. No septation. The abnormality does not have a sclerotic border. No definite cortical breach.
The lesion is better seen on this coronal CT. No definite cortical breach or periosteal reaction. The superolateral aspect of the lesion shows a chondroid pattern of calcification.
The lesion is of high signal on T2, low on T1 and shows heterogenous contrast enhancement.
