Figure 8

The partial left hipbone of La Chapelle-aux-Saints 1. (a) photograph in lateral view, (b) posterior view. (c) 3D surface scan, oblique posterior view. Note the presence of erosions and new bone formation that extends far beyond the hip joint. This does not occur in osteoarthritis, but is compatible with extra-articular granulomas in brucellosis.
