Nontraumatic Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 2006
The etiology of osteonecrosis of the hip may have a genetic basis. The interaction between certain risk factors and a genetic predisposition may determine whether this disease will develop in a particular individual. The rationale for use of joint-sparing procedures in the treatment of this disease is based on radiographic measurements and findings ...

Addition of Bone Marrow Stem Cells Therapy Achieves Better Clinical Outcomes and Lower Rates of Disease Progression Compared With Core Decompression Alone for Early Stage Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2020
BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a cause of hip pain and early joint arthrosis in the young patient. Nonarthroplasty interventions aim to decompress vascular congestion in the femoral head and stimulate new bone growth to prevent ...

MANAGEMENT OF OSTEONECROSIS OF THE FEMORAL HEAD

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1997
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head continues to pose a therapeutic challenge to orthopedic surgeons. This pathologic process results from the death of living components of bone from mechanical and biologic factors. Diagnosis, clinical symptoms, and classification systems are discussed.

Revascularization of the Femoral Head in Osteonecrosis

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 1998
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head accounts for as many as 18% of total hip arthroplasties performed in western countries. The young age of affected patients and the potentially poor outcome have sparked an interest in alternative treatment modalities. Extracapsular placement of a vascularized fibular graft in the subchondral region of the femoral head ...

Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head: Can Arthroplasty be Avoided—A Brief Review of Common Interventions

The Journal of Hip Surgery, 2019
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a rapidly progressive degenerative disease frequently affecting individuals within their fourth and fifth decade of life. Though often asymptomatic, patients with ONFH may present with a wide range of symptoms,

Outcomes of Core Decompression and Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate Injection for Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head

The Journal of Hip Surgery, 2019
Without intervention, 80% of hips with osteonecrosis (ON) will progress. Core decompression (CD) has shown favorable results (60–80% survivorship) in early stage ON, and recently, bone marrow aspirate concentration (BMAC) injection into the decompressed ...

Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head: Femoral Head Sparing Treatments

Seminars in Arthroplasty, 2010
Osteonecrosis is a debilitating disease that affects patients with a varying degree of severity. Treatment for severe progression of the disease often includes total hip arthroplasty or resurfacing procedures. In a younger patient population, the preservation of the femoral head is desirable in cases where the integrity of the femoral head can be ...

Osteonecrosis of the femoral head and pregnancy

Clinical Rheumatology, 1982
The authors report 7 anatomo-clinical cases of osteonecrosis of the femoral head, the clinical onset of which occurred during pregnancy or in the fortnight after delivery. On the basis of histological data obtained through core-biopsy in these 7 cases they discuss the relationship between osteonecrosis and reflex sympathetic dystrophy of the hip.
