Imaging in Septic Arthritis With Inflammatory Neuritis: Diagnosing a Rare Complication.

After femoral neck fractures, hip septic arthritis and inflammatory neuritis are extremely rare. For the purpose of making an accurate diagnosis and preventing serious joint damage, early clinical examination and imaging are crucial. Very few studies have thoroughly described the intraoperative and radiographic results of these disorders. We present the case of a 36-year-old man who developed right hip pain one month after undergoing surgery for a right femur head fracture. Magnetic resonance imaging and biopsy revealed the presence of septic arthritis and inflammatory neuritis. Following the initiation of conservative treatment, the patient is receiving routine follow-up. This case highlights its distinctive features and challenges of diagnosing this entity, emphasizing the significance of vigilant clinical evaluation and imaging modalities for prompt management and the best possible outcomes for patients.
