Femoral Osteotomies for Avascular Necrosis of the Femoral Head
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2004Avascular necrosis of the femoral head affects 10,000 to 20,000 people every year and often these patients are in their 30s and 40s. The natural history of this disease is important to understand because the rate of femoral head collapse and treatment options are related to multiple factors including the cause of the disease, its stage at initial ...

Operative treatment of femoral head necrosis
Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 1992The cases of 80 patients with necrosis of the femoral head who underwent operative treatment in the period April 1980 to April 1988 are reported. Altogether, 102 operative procedures were carried out: 48 intertrochanteric osteotomies, 50 arthroplasties, 3 subchrondral bone graftings, and in one case drilling of the necrotic focus.

Avascular Necrosis of the Femoral Head
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1977To the Editor.— The article by Drs Appell and Weiss (236:2886, 1976) entitled "Retroperitoneal Fibrosis and Avascular Necrosis of the Femoral Head" suggests an association between these two diseases. I am aware of only one other case report of this association, and it is in a recent article.

Necrosis of the femoral head following fracture of the femoral neck
Injury, 1986One hundred and thirty fractures of the femoral neck treated with sliding screw-plate or sliding nail-plate were followed for up to 65 months postoperatively. Throughout the observation period the yearly incidence of necrosis of the femoral head was between 5 and 10 per cent, as estimated by the life table method, and after 5 years 37 per cent of the ...

Femoral head necrosis (FHN) is a condition in which the blood supply to the femoral head is compromised. This leads to cell death in the marrow and the bone, and interferes with the normal activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, and loss of the structural integrity of the femoral head.

Femoral osteotomies for the treatment of avascular necrosis of the femoral head
Operative Orthopädie und Traumatologie, 2019Unloading of the area of necrosis out of the weight-bearing region by shifting healthy bone in the main weight-bearing area, which may delay the progression of the necrosis and enable healing.Circumscribed osteonecrosis of the femoral head without advanced degenerative signs (Tönnis grade ≤ 1) in the relatively young patient (age Tönnis grade 1 ...

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Femoral Head Necrosis
The Journal of Arthroplasty, 2010We evaluated hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy on a cohort of patients with femoral head necrosis (FHN). This double-blind, randomized, controlled, prospective study included 20 patients with unilateral FHN. All were Ficat stage II, treated with either compressed oxygen (HBO) or compressed air (HBA).

Radiation-induced femoral head necrosis
Nigerian Journal of Clinical Practice, 2013There are very few cases of radiation-induced femoral head necrosis described in the literature, therefore, this case will add new knowledge and highlights important aspects in the diagnosis and management of this uncommon condition. Our patient was 74 years old and presented with left hip and groin pain for 8 months, with no previous history of trauma

The epidemiology and pathohistogenesis of avascular femoral head necrosis has still not been clarified in detail. Because the course of the disease runs in stages and over a long time period nearly always culminates in the necessity for a total hip prosthesis, an exact radiological evaluation is of paramount importance for the treatment.
