Fig. 1 —66-year-old woman on hemodialysis for 10 years for analgesic
nephropathy with biopsy-proven dialysis-related amyloidosis. Axial radiograph
of left hip shows well-defined cystic lesion (arrow) with sclerotic
rim in area of left femoral neck. Femoral lesions arise in subcapital region,
usually commencing at superolateral aspect of femoral neck. The most
characteristic cysts secondary to amyloidosis occur in acetabula and proximal
femurs. Because of pathologic fracture, surgical repair had to be performed on
patient 1 year later.
