Abstract
A 50-year-old woman with a chronic polyarthropathy was seen by her orthopedist for long-standing back and shoulder and worsening hip pain. A lateral labral tear and chronic trochanteric bursitis were diagnosed on hip magnetic resonance imaging, which was otherwise unremarkable. Hip arthroscopy was performed revealing an unusual bluish-tinged femoral head articular surface. Computed tomography scans of the spine were also obtained.
