Hello,
I have studied your case.
Trochantric bursitis can lead to lump and which is usually cystic [soft] and painful.
It should have been visualized on fresh MRI.
FNAC [needle aspiration cytology] may help before going for biopsy procedure.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
wishing you good health.
Take care.
