고관절에 발생한 일과성 골다공증 1례

Abstract

Transient osteoporosis, an unusual but distinct syndrome characterized by self-limited and radiographically evident osteopenia, should be distinguished from other cause of bone marrow edema pattern, such as ostenonecrosis, infection, trauma or infiltrating neoplasm because transient osteporosis is a self-limited disorder that requires no intervention. We report a case of transient osteoporosis in right hip which is studied by serial simple radiography, bone scan and MR imaging.
