OBJECTIVE: Our purpose is to describe the use of MRI and associated metal artifact reduction techniques to detect abductor muscle avulsion from the greater trochanter, a complication unusual to the anterolateral approach for total hip replacement. CONCLUSION: MRI facilitates the detection of abductor muscle avulsion in patients who have undergone the anterolateral approach during total hip replacement. MRI is considered a valuable diagnostic tool when this condition is suspected.
