Childhood Femoral Head Osteonecrosis
Clinical Reviews in Bone and Mineral Metabolism, 2011Femoral head osteonecrosis (FHO) is potentially a devastating condition of the hip joint that can affect children and adults. The most serious outcome of this condition is the development of painful progressive osteoarthritis necessitating a total hip replacement at a relatively young age.

Core Decompression for Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1996A retrospective++ review of core decompression of the femoral head for treatment of osteonecrosis was done. Cause of osteonecrosis, radiographic stage and progression, complications, and clinical results were evaluated. The study was based on 54 hips in 45 patients (98.2% followup rate). All patients reported pain preoperatively.

Acetabular Involvement in Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head*
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1999When an arthroplasty is needed to treat osteonecrosis of the femoral head, the use of a component that replaces or resurfaces only the femoral head is often considered as an alternative to total hip replacement if the acetabulum appears radiographically normal.

Secondary osteonecrosis in osteoarthritis of the femoral head
Human Pathology, 1984Secondary osteonecrosis was found by pathologic examination in nine (6 per cent) of 150 femoral heads removed surgically for osteoarthritis. The changes were morphologically distinct from the remodeling deformities that supervene late in steroid-induced or idiopathic osteonecrosis.

Outcome of Hemiresurfacing in Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2004Hemiresurfacing of the femoral head for treatment of osteonecrosis has been proposed as a reasonable alternative to total hip arthroplasty. The results of 59 patients with Ficat Stage III osteonecrosis done by a single surgeon are reviewed. At an average followup of 4.5 years, 16 patients were considered failures because of conversion to total hip ...

A Diagnostic Algorithm for Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1989For patients considered at risk for osteonecrosis (ON) of the femoral head, an algorithm for the efficient and appropriate use of diagnostic tests can be developed. Such an algorithm requires a clear idea of the evolution of the disease process and an understanding of the limitations of each of the modalities by which the disease process can be ...

Multimodality Approach to Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1989Treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head appears to be effective when the disease is identified and treated early. Forty-one patients were evaluated with prospective laboratory assessment, anteroposterior and frog-lateral roentgenograms of both hips, intraosseous pressure measurements (IOP), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and 99mTc methylene ...

Rotation Osteotomies for Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1997Twenty consecutive rotation osteotomies for idiopathic necrosis of the femoral head with an average followup of 6.5 years were reviewed. The original technique used a nail plate for rotation and fixation of the fragments and proved to be reliable for precision of rotation, osteotomy fusion, and absence of mechanical or vascular complications.

[Osteonecrosis of the femoral head].
La Revue du praticien, 2002The femoral head is the main location of avascular osteonecrosis. The lesion remains asymptomatic for several months or years before causing non specific hip pain. Risk factors have been identified, mainly femoral neck fractures, corticosteroid therapy and related conditions (lupus erythematosus, organ transplantations), alcohol abuse, dyslipidemia ...
