Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head is a progressive disease that predominantly affects younger patients. Although the exact pathophysiology of AVN has yet to be elucidated, the disease is characterized by a vascular insult to the blood supply of the femoral head, which can lead to collapse of the femoral head and subsequent degenerative changes. If AVN is diagnosed in the early stages...
Our patient presented with a double femoral head, that is, two separate heads with individual epiphyses, but a single contiguous metaphysis. Two similar cases had been described in the literature. The only common feature in these three cases is that they had open reduction for Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH) through an anterior approach. No other pathology was detected in these patient...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the biomechanical changes of balloon inflating and cement filling in avascular necrosis of the femoral head using finite-element analysis. METHODS The procedure of percutaneous balloon inflating and cement filling was simulated in fresh specimen of human femoral head. CT scan and three-dimensional reconstruction were used to establish the three-dimensional model of the f...
Interruption of the blood flow may occur in intra-osseous arteries within the femoral head. We report a 72-year-old woman who developed osteonecrosis of the femoral head 11 months after surgery involving massive cementing of a segmental distal femoral rotating hinge prosthesis to treat nonunion of the distal femur. The bone cement filled the cavity up to the femoral neck and the superolateral p...
The femoral head receives the majority of its blood supply via branches of the medial femoral circumflex artery, whose course runs across the piriformis fossa and along the superior aspect of the femoral neck. Cadaveric studies have demonstrated damage to the medial femoral circumflex artery in cases where the piriformis fossa was the entry point for intramedullary nailing. Although well recogn...
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. The rabbits with bilateral femoral head osteonecrosis were randomly selected to do the one side of core decompression. The other side was used as the sham....
In 22 patients with femoral neck fractures 99mTc-MDP scintimetry was performed before operation and again shortly after operation; in 17 of these patients the investigation was repeated after four months. Six patients with increased uptake in the femoral head before operation and eight with decreased uptake had similar results at the first postoperative investigation. Of eight patients with an ...
core decompression (cd) of the femoral head is one of the effective treatments of avascular necrosis (avn), especially in the early stages of the disease. to investigate further the value of cd in treating the avn, this study was performed on patients with symptomatic avn with different etiologies who were treated with cd. this study was carried out on 25 patients (with the total number of 37 f...
Introduction In adults, the greatest portion of the blood supply to the femoral head is derived from extraosseous vessels on the posterior lateral surface of the femoral neck with the main supply coming from a branch of the medial circumflex artery(Fig 1). When performing intra-articular procedures in non-arthritic hips, surgeons advocate surgical approaches and techniques to avoid damage to th...
Despite widespread research on non-traumatic femoral head osteonecrosis (FHON), there is no consensus about preventative treatment options. Insufficient blood supply and increased intra-osseous pressure are the initiating events in the majority of cases. BMPs are growth factors that belong to the transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) superfamily. Two specific formulations of BMPs have already bee...
