Name of the Patient : Abc Xyzta S. Vilalmn / F / 28 yrs.
Referred by : Dr. Abc Xyzah.
Examination : M.R.I. of the S. I. and Hip Joints.

CLINICAL PROFILE :

C/O pain in the right hip since 1 1/2 years.

EXAMINATION :

M.R.I of the S. I. and hip joints was performed using the following parameters :

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and T2 Weighted (with fat saturation) axial images.

5 mm thick T1 Weighted and STIR coronal images.

OBSERVATION :

Areas of hypointensity on the T1 Weighted images which turn slightly hyperintense on the STIR and T2 Weighted images are seen within the sacral ala and left iliac wing. Areas of hypointensity on all the pulse sequences are seen within the right iliac wing and may represent sclerotic changes.

The femoral head and the acetabulum reveal normal signal intensity bilaterally. The articular cartilages are unremarkable. There is no effusion within both the hip joints.

The uterus is bulky and a left adnexal cyst is noted.

IMPRESSION :

The MRI features are suggestive of bilateral osteitis condensans ilia. The possibility of bilateral sacroilitis is less likely.

No significant abnormality detected within the hip joints on this study.
