showed permeative destruction of the right pubic bone and adjacent ischium ( ) and permeative destruction of the lateral aspect of the left ilium ( ) immediately superior to the left hip joint. When rituximab therapy was
started, a computed tomography scan of the pubis ( ) showed nearly total destruction of the right inferior pubic ramus ( ) with an adjacent 4-cm soft tissue mass ( ). Twenty-two months after rituximab therapy, all previous
areas of osseous destruction had healed on pelvic radiography ( ). Computed tomography ( ) showed resolution of the soft tissue mass and evidence of osseous healing.
