| Title | Long-standing Morel-Lavallée lesion in the proximal thigh: Ultrasound and MR findings with surgical and histopathological correlation. | | Author(s) | Puig J, Pelaez I, Baños J, Balliu E, Casas M, Maroto A, Pedraza S | | Institution | Department of Radiology-IDI, Doctor Josep Trueta University Hospital, Girona, Spain. | | Source | Australas Radiol 2006 Dec; 50(6):594-597. | | Abstract | A 65-year-old man presented with a soft mass in his proximal right thigh. Ultrasonography showed a well-defined anechoic lesion with slightly internal echoes. On MRI, the mass was hypointense and minimally hyperintense compared with muscle at T1 and hyperintense at T2, with a hypointense peripheral rim on both sequences. No signal loss was observed on T1-weighted fat-suppression MRI. The clinical setting, imaging findings and histopathological features were consistent with a long-standing Morel-Lavallée lesion. | | Language | ENG | | Pub Type(s) | JOURNAL ARTICLE
