Vacuum Phenomenon in Multiple Joints; Prevalence and association with age and gender

DiscussionVP may be detected as an incidental finding in various joints at the same time. Therefore, its presence may not have any clinical relevance. Examination technique, joint position and patient population may affect the PRVP in the joints. Knowledge of this anatomical phenomenon may prevent faulty diagnosis of joint pathology and prevent suboptimal treatment of patients.
