Pregnancy related transient osteoporosis of the hip (PR-TOH) is a rare condition that manifests with sudden pain located in the groin region, anterior thigh and buttocks. It is a benign and in the majority of cases self-limiting disease, related to bone marrow oedema. It occurs during the third trimester of pregnancy or less frequently during the post-partum period. Hip movements are usually restricted by pain and it often becomes a non-obstetric indication for Caesarean delivery. Here, we report a case of unilateral PR-TOH diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and a literature review.
妊娠相关性髋部一过性骨质疏松症（PR-TOH）是一种罕见疾病，表现为腹股沟区、大腿前侧和臀部突然疼痛。它是一种良性疾病，大多数情况下具有自限性，与骨髓水肿有关。它发生在妊娠晚期，或更少见地发生在产后期间。髋关节运动通常因疼痛受限，这通常成为剖宫产的非产科指征。在这里，我们报告了一例经磁共振成像（MRI）诊断的单侧 PR-TOH 病例，并进行了文献复习。
