Radionuclide arthrography is becoming increasingly useful in the evaluation of femoral component loosening in patients with a painful total hip prosthesis. Additional potential advantages of radionuclide arthrography include detection of abnormal communications with the hip, such as bursae, abscess cavities, and fistulas. A case of cutaneous fistula communicating with the hip in a patient with loosening and infection of the femoral component of the total hip prosthesis that is clearly demonstrated by radionuclide arthrography is presented.
放射性核素关节造影在评估全髋关节置换术后疼痛患者股骨假体松动方面正变得越来越有用。放射性核素关节造影的其他潜在优势包括检测与髋关节的异常连通,如滑囊、脓肿腔和瘘管。本文介绍了一例全髋关节置换术股骨假体松动并感染的患者,其皮肤瘘管与髋关节相通,放射性核素关节造影清晰地显示了这一情况。
