[Ochronotic hip disease. Radiological and scintigraphic study (author's transl)]

A radiological and scintigraphic study of hte femoral head removed from a patient at the time of insertion of a total prosthesis of the hip in a patient with ochronotic rheumatic disease. The images obtained differ from those seen in aseptic osteonecrosis and confirm the hypotheses of Lagier, who has described several forms of arthrotic remodelling in ochronotic hip disease.
