  Fig. 1. (A) Pelvic axial fat-saturated T2-weighted and (B) T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reveal that the ischiofemoral space is narrower on the left side than on the right side. Additionally, on the pelvic axial fat-saturated T2-weighted MRI (A), high signal intensity is found on the left quadratus femoris muscle (green arrow), indicative of muscle edema. Over the area of high signal intensity in the left quadratus femoris muscle, the left sciatic nerve is visible (yellow arrow).
