Physical examination showed a 12 x 8-cm cystic swelling in the adductor region of the right thigh deep to the adductor muscles (Figure 1).

Pelvic X-ray showed a well-defined round lytic lesion in the body of the right pubic bone with surrounding sclerosis (Figure 2). At the end of the 6 months of treatment, pelvic X-ray showed sclerosis of the previous lytic lesion in the pubic bone (Figure 2).
(A) T1W and (B) T2W magnetic resonance imaging of the pelvis reveals a well-marginated predominantly cystic lesion in the adductor compartment of the right thigh.

Magnetic resonance imaging of the pelvis and thigh revealed a well-marginated predominantly cystic lesion (hyperintense on T1-weighted [T1W] and markedly hyperintense on T2-weighted [T2W]/Short TI Inversion Recovery [STIR] images) in the medial aspect of the right upper thigh involving the adductor longus muscle with splaying of the adductor magnus and gracilis muscle with lateral splaying of the femoral vessels with maintained fat planes (Figure 3).
