Initial radiological study was normal and MRi showed diffuse edema in the periacetabular region, suggestive of a sarcomatous lesion. A 3D CT-scan demonstrated the existence of an osteochondroma in the anterior wall of the cup, which led to femoroacetabular impingement. Conclusion Alter resection of the tumor the patient remains asymptomatic 6 years from surgery.
