Abstract

Subchondral cysts can mimic the radiographic features of intra-osseous ganglia or a variety of neoplastic processes. This case demonstrates the development of a massive subarticular cyst in the supra-acetabular bone. The unique pathogenesis of subchondral cysts is illustrated by the evolution of radiographic features that may be useful in planning treatment.
