Abstract

Septic arthritis and transient synovitis are the two most common diseases among young patients with acute hip pain. The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and diagnostic accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in differentiating between  septic arthritis and transient synovitis. This study included 25 patients; the final diagnosis by culture and sensitivity was 16 septic arthritis and 9 patient was diagnosed as transient synovitis. We found that sensitivity and specificity of post contrast MRI with fat suppression for differentiation between  septic arthritis and transient synovitis are 100%.
