Figure 2 Magnetic resonance imaging series of pre-operative, post-revision surgery, and after Tigecycline local treatment.
A: Initial radiographic evaluation: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image of right hip showed joint effusion and trochanteric bursitis involving right lateral subcutaneous layer of right artificial hip. The finding corresponds to the diagnosis of pseudotumor; B: MRI image following revision total hip arthroplasty (THA): recurrent periprosthetic pseudotumor over right hip to lateral subcutaneous layer and adjacent subcutaneous inflammation; C: MRI image following revision THA, one month after local tigecycline infusion, showed subsidence of recurrent pseudotumor, periprosthetic soft tissue swelling and effusion.
