The purpose of the study was to determine the natural history of pseudotumors following metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty (THA) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Initial MRI was conducted at a mean of 36months postoperatively. Follow-up MRI was performed at a mean of 20months after the det
