case_images: Coronal TSE T2 sequence (TR 2700/TE 70) with fat saturation. Presence of joint effusion in the right coxofemoral joint (arrow) with evidence of marked bone marrow hyperintensity of the femoral head and neck related to bone marrow oedema (arrowhead).

case_images: The MRI of the hip showed the presence of an effusion in the right coxofemoral joint (Figure 1, arrow) and a marked bone marrow hyperintensity of the femoral head and neck (Figure 1, arrowhead).
case_images: Coronal TSE T1 fat sat (TR 500/TE 18) with fat saturation acquired after MdC injection (Gd-DOTA). Evidence of diffuse articular synovial enhancement (arrows) of the right hip. Inhomogeneous CE is also evident in the femoral head and neck, related to bone marrow oedema, and in the periarticular soft tissues.

case_images: Gadolinium injection (Gd-DOTA) showed diffuse synovial enhancement and an inhomogeneous contrast enhancement in the femoral head and neck suggestive for bone edema and in the juxtaarticular soft tissues (Figure 2).
