variations in anatomy and biomechanics between males and females. These sex-specific changes underlie a predisposition to develop different musculoskeletal diseases. Females are two to eight times more likely to sustain ACL injuries and two to three times more likely to develop OA. Furthermore, anatomic

anatomic variations exist. However, using standard implants with different sizing options to account for anatomic variants appears to be a valid

anatomic variation, and decreased bone density.58 Patient ability to comply with postoperative hip precautions is also an important preoperative consideration

anatomic variations, muscular deficiencies or tightness of external structures can disrupt normal biomechanics. Soft tissue structures like the medial PF ligament

anatomical site of disease, the most common sites of OA—the knees, hips, and hands—are also those the best studied and the subject of much of the epidemiologic data to follow. The ability to identify risk factors at the individual level helps to comprehensively provide arthritis care

Bilateral subdural collections: abusive head trauma with hematomas of varying ages, bridging vein injury, retinal hemorrhages (Fig. 4.4). The set of two M R I labeled A and B. Panel A shows an axial

variation in the pelvis and proximal femur. A principal component analysis study demonstrated that females are relatively smaller in the hip and SI joints, the vertical diameter of the innominate bone (Fig. 23.1), and the height of the iliac wing. Female pelves are also associated with a relatively larger pelvic
