Best Answer

Reactive bone marrow is a polyclonal bone marrow response meaning that the bone marrow is overproducing one or more cell types as part of the immune response. Edema is swelling caused by the overproduction of cells. Pedicles are part of the vertebrae that make up the spine, the part which connects the body and spinous process. L means lumbar and bilaterally means both sides so it means that the reactive bone marrow edema is occurring in both pedicles of the vertebrae.

There's a little bit of swelling in the bone marrow in the part of the leg bone that's on the side of the hip. Reactive marrow edema does not provide a diagnosis, but is just an observation on MRI. Your health care provider will take that into consideration when trying to diagnose the cause of your hip pain, putting together this information with the results of your history and physical.
