case_images: A computed tomography (CT) scan of her right hip revealed two partly calcified soft tissue masses associated with the right iliopsoas and obturator internus muscles (Figure 1).
case_images: MRI right hip. Large air- and fluid-filled collection tracking along the iliopsoas bursa and psoas muscle (arrowhead).

case_images: An MRI of the right hip showed a large air- and fluid-filled collection tracking along the iliopsoas bursa and psoas musculature into the pelvis (Figure 2).

case_images: fig3
case_images: This collection communicated with the hip prosthesis, and on CT imaging, the acetabulum component appeared to be medialized beyond the medial wall of the acetabulum as depicted in Figure 3.

case_images: IR was consulted for drain placement and serial debridements, which were conducted with a rotating basket Trerotola device over the course of the next four weeks. In Figure 6, contrast dye can be seen tracking from within the iliopsoas abscess into the hip joint.

case_images: Four weeks following her explantation, the patient returned to the operating room for placement of a second temporary weight bearing custom-fitted prosthesis made from methyl methacrylate with gentamicin-impregnated antibiotics (Figures 7 and 8).
case_images: XR right hip. Stage 2: temporary prosthesis.

case_images: Four weeks following her explantation, the patient returned to the operating room for placement of a second temporary weight bearing custom-fitted prosthesis made from methyl methacrylate with gentamicin-impregnated antibiotics (Figures 7 and 8). X-rays revealed her temporary prosthesis to be stable, but with radiolucencies primarily around the femoral component (Figure 8).
