Abstract | ||||
Hip pain is a prevalent condition that affects individuals across all age groups. The causes of hip pain can be acute and chronic as well as traumatic and non-traumatic origins. Identification of the underlying cause is crucial, as treatment approaches differ based on the specific pathology. The clinical assessment of painful conditions of the hip is often hard, which leads the assessment to rely on imaging to establish diagnosis. MRI is the investigation of choice in cases of non-traumatic hip pain that show inconclusive radiographs. In cases with painful hip disorders, bone marrow edema is a common finding in MRI. BME has a relation to a large variety of diseases. However, in many cases its pattern or its existence can narrow the differential diagnoses or even help in pointing a specific diagnosis. It can be categorized as primary, that has no obvious cause, and secondary, which is related to specific disorders. AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of MR in differentiating between variable causes of bone marrow edema of the hip in setting of recent non-traumatic hip pain. | ||||
