Description

We report three cases of idiopathic transient osteoporosis of the hip (TOH).<BR>Case 1 was a 44-year-old man. He complained of left hip pain after jogging two weeks ago. He was diagnosed with TOH on MRI. After observation by non weight bearing, pain disappeared after six weeks, and abnormal signal on MRI diminished after three months. Case 2 was a 35-year-old woman. She complained of right hip pain in week 30 of her pregnancy. After delivery, she consulted our hospital. MRI findings were identical with TOH. At present, she is instructed to keep partial-weight bearing in the right lower extremity. Case 3 was a 32-year-old-man. He had right hip pain in weight bearing a month ago, and it did not improve by conservative treatment at a nearby clinic. He consulted our hospital. There was no motion pain in the hip, and MRI findings were identical with TOH. At present, he is under observation at our clinic.
