Would it be okay if I posted an x-ray image of the hips of an anonymous patient who has been diagnosed with mild hip dysplasia? It is not an x-ray of my own hips. The reason I would like to post the x-ray is because an attending physician (orthopedic surgeon) examined it and could, at best, come to the conclusion that the patient "may or may not" develop arthritis at some point in their life. For educational purposes and out of sheer curiosity, I would be interested in hearing some of you guys' predictions on how likely it is that this patient will develop hip arthritis in the future.
