Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzshi B. Chlmn / F / 25 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of Both Hips & S. I. Joints.
CLINICAL PROFILE :
C/O pain in the right hip since 1 month following intramuscular injection for abdominal pain.
EXAMINATION :
M.R.I. of both hips and S. I. Joints was performed using the following parameters :
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and 6 mm thick T2 Weighted axial images.
5 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images.
OBSERVATION :
The L5 vertebra is sacralized.
There is an ill-defined hyperintense signal on the T2 Weighted and STIR images in the right gluteus medius muscle along the right iliac wing. This lesion appears isointense to the normal muscle on the T1 Weighted images.
There is no focal or diffuse area of altered signal in the bones comprising the hip joints and sacro-iliac joints on either side. There is no bony destruction/erosion or joint effusion noted.
The visualized musculature of the pelvis appears normal.
The right ovarian cyst is visualized.
IMPRESSION :
Ill-defined altered signal in the right gluteus medius muscle most likely is the sequelae of previous intramuscular injection (? local myositis). No collection/abscess is noted. The visualized hip joints and sacro-iliac joints are unremarkable.
