AVASCULAR NECROSIS OF THE FEMORAL HEAD AFTER COVID-19: A CASE REPORT

open access: yesAnti-Aging Eastern Europe, 2023
Avascular necrosis of the femoral head can traumatic or non-traumatic in origin. Embolism (hemoglobinopathies, dysbaric osteonecrosis), corticosteroid treatment, alcohol usage, pelvic irradiation, and genetic susceptibility are among the causes of this ...

Outcomes of total hip arthroplasty, as a salvage procedure, following failed internal fixation of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
AIMS: The optimal management of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck in independently mobile patients remains open to debate. Successful fixation obviates the limitations of arthroplasty for this group of patients.
