Resumo

A trombose venosa profunda (TVP) é uma freqüente causa de edema unilateral de membros inferiores. O cisto sinovial da articulação coxofemoral pode ser uma causa rara desse sintoma e deve ser considerado no diagnóstico diferencial. Apresentamos um caso clínico em que o eco-Doppler colorido revelou a presença de compressão extrínseca da veia ilíaca externa. A ressonância magnética demonstrou tratar-se de cisto sinovial como fator etiológico, confirmado pela ressecção cirúrgica.

Palavras-chave

Abstract

Deep venous thrombosis frequently results in unilateral lower limb edema. A synovial cyst in the hip joint may be a rare cause of this symptom and should be considered in the differential diagnosis. We report on a case in which color-flow Doppler ultrasonography showed presence of extrinsic compression of the external iliac vein. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a synovial cyst as etiologic factor, confirmed by surgical excision.

Keywords
