Abstract
A 6-year-old boy presented a 3-months history of right hip pain. Synovitis of the hip was initially diagnosed, and X-ray were normal. Three months later a slight pain in the hip persisted, and a limitation of joint motion was evident at physical examination. X-ray and MRI at this time revealed evidence of osteonecrosis of the right femoral head.
