Porous tantalum rods for treating osteonecrosis of the femoral head.
This study evaluated the outcomes of using porous tantalum rods for the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). We performed core decompression and inserted porous tantalum implants in 149 patients (168 consecutive hips) with ONFH. Hips had large (65), medium (64), or small (39) lesions; 63 lesions were lateral, 68 were central, and 35 were medial. Conversion to total hip arthrop...
متن کاملMidterm Results of Treating Femoral Head Osteonecrosis With Autogenous Corticocancellous Bone Grafting

متن کاملPorous Tantalum Implant in Treating Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head: Still a Viable Option?
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the survivorship and risk factors for radiographic progression and conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) after porous tantalum implant surgery in the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). The study comprised 90 ONFH patients (104 consecutive hips) who were treated with a porous tantalum implant combined with bone grafting between Ju...
