Vacuum phenomena is a well-known alteration in osteoarthritis. It´s possible to see gas in bursas around osteoarthritic joints due to comunication between them. We describe an unusual case of vacuum phenomena arising within an enlarged iliopsoas bursa in association with mildly osteoarthritic and dysplastic hip in a 48-year-old woman who underwent radiologic study in our institution with an initial suspiction of iliopsoas abscess.
