| Abstract: | A case of eosinophilic granuloma of the ilium presented as Pyrexia of Unknown Origin and pain in the hip on the same side of the lesion. Investigations led to diagnosis and treatment. The article presents a case study of a 14 year old boy, of previous good health, presented with a two week history of pyrexia ranging from 38-39°C, complaining of pain in the left hip, and left sacro-iliac joint region and presenting a limp on the same side. There were no respiratory, urinary or bowel symptoms and no relevant past history. |
