Abstract

We present the case of bilateral transient osteoporosis of the talus in pregnancy, which is rarely reported in the medical literature, confirmed by pre- and postpartum MRI.A gravid 33-year-old white female G4P2A1 with bilateral transient osteoporosis of the talus confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is presented. She was conservatively managed and had clinical resolution several weeks postpartum. A follow-up MRI confirmed improvement in bilateral talus consistent with the natural course of transient osteoporosis.
