AbstractThree cases of transient osteoporosis of the hip and their ultrasonographic findings are presented. Transient osteoporosis of the hip is an uncommon condition with pain in the hip area and limping. The diagnosis is supported by local radiological osteoporosis and other imaging methods. Exclusion of more common entities is required. Effusion of the hip joint detected by ultrasonography is also related to this condition, which must be taken into account in patients with hip pain.
