Efficacy of artificial femoral head replacement for femoral head avascular necrosis
Medicine, 2019 Abstract Background: Femoral head avascular necrosis (FHAN) is one of the most common progressive orthopedic disorders. Previous studies have reported that artificial femoral head replacement (AFHR) can effectively treat patients with FHAN. However, no systematic review has investigated the efficacy of AFHR for FHAN. This study
