A novel model of traumatic femoral head necrosis in rats developed by microsurgical technique

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022
Background Clinical angiography and vascular microperfusion confirmed that the femoral head retains blood supply after a collum femur fracture. However, no animal model accurately mimics this clinical situation.

Steroid induced osteonecrosis: An analysis of steroid dosing risk. [PDF]

, 2010
Osteonecrosis is a serious condition involving bone destruction that frequently requires surgical treatment to rebuild the joint. While there is an abundance of literature documenting corticosteroid related osteonecrosis, there is no consensus as to the ...

Morphological and Mechanical Evaluation of the Cancellous Bone in the Rat Femoral Head after Traumatic Osteonecrosis

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2006
Over 7000 patients are suffering from osteonecrosis of the femoral head annually in Japan. The patients have to undergo surgical treatments if the femoral head collapsed. The mechanism of femoral head collapse is still unclear, although morphological and

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.

Knee loading protects against osteonecrosis of the femoral head by enhancing vessel remodeling and bone healing [PDF]

, 2015
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a serious orthopedic problem. Moderate loads with knee loading promote bone formation, but their effects on osteonecrosis have not been investigated.

Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease and the risk of injuries requiring hospitalization [PDF]

, 2012
Background and purpose Previous studies have suggested that Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) is associated with repetitive trauma, coagulation problems and anatomical abnormalities of the blood supply to the femoral head. The hypothesis that repetitive

The effect of core decompression on local expression of BMP-2, PPAR-γ and bone regeneration in the steroid-induced femoral head osteonecrosis

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2012
Background To investigate the efficacy of the sole core decompression surgery for the treatment of steroid-induced femoral head osteonecrosis. Methods The model was established by administration of steroids in combination with horse serum.
