Description
Summary:On clinical examination, compared with the left leg, the right lower leg was warm, accompanied by strong pulsation on palpation on the lesion area. Investigations include computed tomography angiography, magnetic resonance imaging, catheter based digital subtract angiography, and histopathological examination. Computed tomography angiography and magnetic resonance imaging can help determine the extent of the lesions and exclude other causes such as tumours.12 The computed tomography results often show contrast-enhancing large cavitary lesions in the medulla with bone erosion. Computed tomography angiography, magnetic resonance imaging, and digital subtract angiography can provide useful diagnostic information.
