Reason: Left tibia pain x 4 months, no specific injury, xrays taken in January and April with Continued abnormality of the medial cortex of the proximal tibia, evaluate for possible lesion History: Left tibia pain. There is minimal prominence of the medial aspect of the proximal tibial diaphysis associated with a tiny defect in the cortex, perhaps representing a healed fibrous cortical defect. No underlying edema or enhancement. The bone marrow signal intensity of the tibia and fibula appears normal. The musculature of the leg appears normal. Please note, this study was not protocoled for evaluation of the intrinsic structures of the knee.
Possible small healed fibrous cortical defect, but no finding to account for the patient's pain.
