Susceptibility of Males, but Not Females to Developing Femoral Head Osteonecrosis in Response to Alcohol Consumption. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
We previously reported that ethanol-containing liquid diet feeding induces osteonecrosis of the femoral head in male rats. Also, it was reported that a large amount of consumed ethanol and a long-term history of drinking were risk factors for ...

Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head [PDF]

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 1999
New cases of osteonecrosis of the femoral head in the United States number between 10,000 and 20,000 per year. This disease usually affects patients in their late 30s and early 40s. Although a number of authors have related specific risk factors to this disease, its etiology, pathogenesis, and treatment remain a source of considerable controversy. This

Evaluation of a pig femoral head osteonecrosis model [PDF]

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2010
Background A major cause of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is interruption of a blood supply to the proximal femur. In order to evaluate blood circulation and pathogenetic alterations, a pig femoral head osteonecrosis model was examined to address ...

Cell-based Treatments of Femoral Head Osteonecrosis: A Literature Review [PDF]

Reviews in Clinical Medicine, 2018
The preferred desire of orthopedic surgeons is to preserve the femoral head in the early stages of femoral head osteonecrosis; however, hip arthroplasty is needed in most cases.

Arthroscopic-Assisted Core Decompression for Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2014
The management of pre-collapse osteonecrosis of the femoral head is controversial. Core decompression is a technique that theoretically decreases the intraosseous pressure of the femoral head, resulting in a local vascularized healing response.

Imaging of osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Acta bio-medica : Atenei Parmensis, 2016
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a common disease affecting both children and adults causing acute hip pain and functional impairment. Among the various techniques allowing a correct diagnosis, MRI represents the gold standard for an early detection, the latter being useful for a positive outcome.

Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head

, 2017
Management of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is dependent on the stage of the disease and if there is collapse of the femoral head. Nonoperative management is rarely indicated, whereas core decompression with grafting can be a successful treatment method if used prior to collapse of the femoral head. For cases where subchondral collapse has occurred,
