While factors such as implant design, surgical technique, and spinopelvic alignment have been widely studied, hemipelvis malrotation—a subtle, often unrecognized unilateral pelvic deformity—has received limited attention. This condition can lead to apparent implant malposition despite adherence to standard surgical protocols. A review of current literature suggests that hemipelvis malrotation may significantly influence postoperative hip stability, yet it is frequently missed on standard anteroposterior (AP) pelvic radiographs. A clinical case is presented in which a patient experienced recurrent anterior dislocation after primary THA, even though the acetabular and femoral components appeared well positioned on routine imaging. Further evaluation with advanced imaging revealed a pronounced unilateral hemipelvis malrotation that had altered the true functional orientation of the acetabulum. Revision surgery incorporating correction of this underlying deformity successfully restored joint stability and resolved the patient’s symptoms. This case highlights the limitations of traditional 2-dimensional imaging and underscores the need for a more comprehensive, multiplanar, and dynamic preoperative assessment. Recognizing hemipelvis malrotation as a distinct contributor to THA instability may improve surgical planning and reduce the risk of dislocation and early revision. Collaboration between orthopedic surgeons and radiologists is essential to identify subtle pelvic asymmetries that can compromise component alignment and long-term functional outcomes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":53472,"journal":{"name":"Radiology Case Reports","volume":"21 4","pages":"Pages 1437-1443"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145981678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Retained products of conception (RPOC) and subinvolution of the placental site are common causes, but uterine vascular anomalies such as arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) can present with similar clinical imaging findings, creating diagnostic uncertainty. Enhanced myometrial vascularity (EMV) has recently been recognized as a postpartum vascular finding that may mimic AVMs on ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Because true congenital AVMs are rare, most AVM-like lesions encountered in the postpartum period likely represent acquired vascular changes or EMV, making accurate diagnosis vital for appropriate and fertility-preserving management. We present the case of a 34-year-old gravida 5 para 3 patient who developed persistent heavy vaginal bleeding following early pregnancy loss. Serial ultrasounds demonstrated a thickened, hypervascular endometrium with extension into the myometrium, raising concern for either RPOC or uterine AVM. Despite declining serum β-hCG levels, her symptoms persisted. MRI performed nearly two months after pregnancy loss revealed intrauterine enhancing material consistent with RPOC and associated EMV, favoring a diagnosis of EMV over AVM. The patient subsequently underwent successful hysteroscopic dilation and curettage, with pathology confirming RPOC and resolution of symptoms. This case highlights the diagnostic challenge and importance of differentiating EMV from uterine AVM in the evaluation of secondary PPH to avoid unnecessary invasive treatments such as embolization or hysterectomy.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":53472,"journal":{"name":"Radiology Case Reports","volume":"21 4","pages":"Pages 1401-1407"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145947941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
