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 of the femoral head.

Radiographs and subsequent magnetic resonance imaging r...
متن کاملAvascular Necrosis of the Femoral Head
Since the recent publication of studies of the vascular pattern of the proximal femoral epiphysis in man by Tucker (1949), Trueta and Harrison (1953), Judet, Judet, Lagrange and Dunoyer (1955), and Trueta (1957) there has been a renewed interest in the mechanism of capital necrosis after fractures of the femoral neck. The literature on the subject is so extensive that no effort will be made her...
متن کاملIn brief: Ficat classification: avascular necrosis of the femoral head.
The earliest attempt at classifying avascular necrosis of the femoral head was proposed by Ficat and Arlet in 1964 [2], before the advent of MRI. The purpose of the classification was to provide prognostic insight and compare treatment options. Ficat modified the classification to include invasive testing procedures and a preclinical, preradiographic stage in 1985 [1]. Since then the system has...
متن کاملAvascular necrosis of the femoral head in HIV-infected patients.
Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head is an emerging complication in HIV infected patients. It has been suggested that the increased incidence of AVN in this population may be caused by an increased prevalence of predisposing factors for osteonecrosis, including protease inhibitors, hyperlipidemia, corticosteroid use, alcohol and intravenous drug abuse. The aim of this study was to asses...
