Femoral Osteotomies for Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head

Biologic Orthopedics Journal, 2021
Femoral osteotomy is performed for osteonecrosis of the femoral head to prevent the progression of collapse and promote the repair process by transposing the necrotic lesion to the nonweight-bearing portion. The purpose of this review article was to summarize the current knowledge on two types of femoral osteotomy: transtrochanteric anterior or ...
