| Abstract |
In this report, we present the case of an intra-articular synovial lipoma in a 58-year-old female with a coincident marked unilateral hip osteoarthritis. This patient suffered from right hip pain that developed gradually over 2 years. Physical examination noted decreased range of motion and evidence of impingement. MR and CT images showed an intra-articular fat-intense mass in the hip joint that was excised and confirmed as a synovial lipoma on histology. This case reveals that an intra-articular lipoma of the hip could be accompanied by pain or impingement and followed by hip osteoarthritis even in the absence of trauma. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 May 2018.
All research outputs
#17,948,821
of 23,047,237 outputs
Outputs from Skeletal Radiology
#1,131
of 1,478 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#306,987
of 439,524 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Skeletal Radiology
#36
of 55 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,047,237 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,478 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.3. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 439,524 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 25th percentile – i.e., 25% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 55 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
