Figure 1 Preoperative imaging of the os calcis lipoma.
A: Initial radiographic presentation. B: T2 STIR sequence magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) image, sagittal view. Fat suppression is presented at the area of the lesion, with high intensity linear signal at the center. No fracture or expansion into the soft tissues was identified. C: T1 sequence MRI, transverse view. D: Sagittal view. Sharply demarcated lesion with homogeneous high intensity signal at Ward’s neutral triangle, with linear low intensity signal at the center. The high signal denotes lipid content of the lesion, whereas the central low intensity signal is compatible with local infarction and necrosis.
