Purpose: It has been suggested that retinal blood vessel arborization (RBVA) is unique to each individual. We examined this claim in a pedigree that included two pairs of monozygotic twins.
Methods: Fundus photographs were taken of subjects belonging to this pedigree to compare the pattern of their RBVA.
Background: Clinically, understanding how the soft tissue envelope adapts to various forms of hip dysfunction could enhance both surgical and nonsurgical management. Very few studies have looked at soft tissue structures as preoperative discriminators between varying underlying etiologies of hip conditions.
Purpose: To demonstrate that the magnetic resonance arthrography assessment of soft tissue structures of the hip will preoperatively differ in patients with different underlying hip joint diseases.
