초록

A 78-year-old female patient referred by the department of obstetrics and gynecology was recommended for orthopedic surgery because a cystic lesion was found in the left femoral proximal area in the bone mineral densitometry. CT scan and general X-ray performed in the orthopedic department found benign tumors later. Intra-medullary nail was operated. Curettage and bone graft were performed. Radiotechnologist is also important for the morphological observation of femur in the femoral BMD. It provides a lot of benefits to the patient.
