Treatment of nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head using bone impaction grafting through a femoral neck window
International Orthopaedics, 06/18/09
Wang BL et al. - Cox risk model analysis showed that the clinical success rate correlated with both pre-operation stage and the necrotic area of the femoral head. This procedure may be effective at avoiding or forestalling the need for total hip replacement in young patients with early to intermediate stages of osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Therefore, it may be the treatment of choice particularly in nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head of pre-collapse stage with small and middle area.
