Dexamethasone and Osteonecrosis

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine, 1981
Abstract: Four cases are reported in whom osteonecrosis followed after Dexamethasone was administered in high dosage for a short time to mduce cerebral and spinal cord oedema. Although corticosteroids have been implicated in the development of osteonecrosis, the delay from corticosteroid administration to the development of symptoms (9–30 months ...

Osteonecrosis

Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology, 2000
Osteonecrosis (avascular necrosis, aseptic necrosis or subchondral avascular necrosis) is not a specific disease entity but the final common pathway of a number of conditions leading to bone death. The main predisposing factors (trauma, glucocorticosteroids, alcoholism and connective tissue disorders) should be carefully sought, but osteonecrosis can ...

Osteonecrosis in the Foot

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2007
Osteonecrosis, also referred to as avascular necrosis, refers to the death of cells within bone caused by a lack of circulation. It has been documented in bones throughout the body. In the foot, osteonecrosis is most commonly seen in the talus, the first and second metatarsals, and the navicular.

Osteonecrosis

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 1991
Osteochondritis dissecans has been shown to heal with protective weight bearing alone, if there is no loose body in the joint. Magnetic resonance imaging can accurately predict the presence and extent of chondral fragments, and it appears that a magnetic resonance staging classification has been developed that allows preoperative staging of lesions of ...

Osteonecrosis of the talus

Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2004
Talar osteonecrosis remains partially understood and a clinical challenge. Further research is necessary to elucidate the etiology, pathophysiology, and true incidence of this complex disorder fully. Optimal imaging strategies and staging systems also require further investigation.

Osteonecrosis of the Humeral Head

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 1997
Current understanding of osteonecrosis of the humeral head is largely based on previous studies of the femoral head. Similarities between the two sites are numerous, but the shoulder has many unique characteristics. The anatomy of the glenohumeral joint, motion at the scapulothoracic joint, the rich vascular supply of the surrounding soft tissues, and ...

Postmeniscectomy osteonecrosis

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 2002
In the last few years, postmeniscectomy osteonecrosis has been reported, especially in elderly patients, with low incidence, unclear physiopathology, and without long periods of follow-up. We report a case diagnosed and followed-up for a 3-year period using magnetic resonance imaging.

Postarthroscopy osteonecrosis of the knee

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2013
Spontaneous subchondral osteonecrosis of the knee joint confined to a localized area of one condyle can occur after arthroscopic procedures. Meniscal tears, arthroscopic meniscectomy, and radiofrequency chondroplasty are aetiological factors in the development of osteonecrosis.

Spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee

Clinical Imaging, 2008
Spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee presents with acute onset of severe, pain in elderly patients, usually female and usually without a history of trauma. Originally described as idiopathic osteonecrosis, the exact etiology is still debated. Evidence suggests that an acute fracture occurs as a result of chronic stress or minor trauma to a weakened ...
