Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging may distinguish transient osteoporosis of the hip from more severe hip diseases. 12 patients with transient osteoporosis of the hip underwent MR imaging. The initial and follow-up studies included T1- and T2-weighted images in coronal, transverse or sagittal planes. There were revealed 3 stages: diffuse-, focal-, and residual stage. This syndrome is characterized by hip pain, limping, and osteoporosis of the femoral head with preservation of the joint space. The clinical symptoms and abnormalities on MR images disappeared completely within 6-10 months.
