Anonymously , everybody agreed this is a stress fracture, a longitudinal cortically based stress fracture of the femoral calcare.
While uncommon site for a fracture, the secondary tension lines in the femoral neck are longitudinal in the femoral calcare.
The patient is not on Alendronate as per chart
Thank you Dr Resnick for elaborative details you provided and Dr Taneja for the article I am attaching above.
Have a wonderful weekend
