Avascular Necrosis of the Femoral Head: Are Any Genes Involved?
Avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) is a pathologic process that results from interruption of blood supply to the femur bone resulting in the death of bone cells and collapse of the femoral head. Nontraumatic ANFH continuesto be a significant challenge to orthopedic surgeons. While the exact mechanisms remain elusive, many new insights have emerged from research in the last decade tha...
متن کاملAvascular necrosis after a steroid injection.
I read with interest the Clinical Vista Brief about bilateral hip avascular necrosis. I note that the corticosteroid injection was given 8 months before the condition was diagnosed, but the patient had complained of hip pain for 13 months. Cortisone injections (particularly bursa and tendon sheath infiltrations) are extremely common treatments in primary care, but avascular necrosis is rarely s...
متن کاملComparison of Total Hip Arthroplasty and Core Decompression in Avascular Necrosis of the Femoral Head after Taking Temgesic and Norgesic
Background: Osteonecrosis is common after taking Temgesic and Norgesic. This study intended to suggest the preferable surgical treatment in osteonecrosis patients who use these drugs. Methods: Twenty tree patients with hip osteonecrosis who were hospitalized in the Kerman hospitals after using Temgesic and Norgesic were followed for about 14 months from 2008 to 2010 (from a minimum of 2 months ...
متن کاملAvascular necrosis of the femoral head.
The patient was a 51-year-old man who was evaluated by a physical therapist for a chief complaint of right hip pain. The patient was treated with a single bout of nonthrust hip joint mobilizations, but due to the patient's atypical response and long-term use of oral corticosteroid medications, he was referred to his primary care physician. Radiographs and subsequent magnetic resonance imaging r...
متن کامل[Avascular necrosis of the femoral head after transcervical fracture].
The association of transcervical fractures of the femur with avascular necrosis of the capital fragment was recognised many years ago. Nevertheless several basic questions, such as the incidence ofavascular necrosis, the extent and pattern ofbone death and revascularisation and also the role played by avascular necrosis in non-union of these fractures, remain unanswered. In the hope that a hist...
