چکیده
Core decompression may used in the management of early stage, precollapse nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the humeral head. We propose a technique without risk of complications associated with injury to the biceps tendon or the blood supply to the humeral head.

Background: Femoral head avascular necrosis is the cause of paralyzing status of youth population. Initial diagnosisis the main element in treating the disease. Bone grafting and core decompression are the approved cures at the earlysteps of the disease. Hip replacement in a total manner is the common cure in the final stages. The optimal treatment inthe intermediate stages is...

متن کاملArthroscopic-assisted core decompression of the humeral head.
Humeral head osteonecrosis is a progressive disease that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment. Core decompression is a viable treatment option for early-stage cases. Most surgeons perform core decompression by arthroscopically visualizing the necrotic area of bone and using a cannulated drill to take a core. Several attempts are frequently needed to reach the proper location. In the hip mult...
متن کاملTreatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head with implantation of autologous bone-marrow cells. Surgical technique.
BACKGROUND Aseptic nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a disorder that can lead to femoral head collapse and the need for total hip replacement. Since osteonecrosis may be a disease of mesenchymal cells or bone cells, the possibility has been raised that bone marrow containing osteogenic precursors implanted into a necrotic lesion of the femoral head may be of benefit in the treat...
متن کاملNontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head: endoscopic visualization of its avascular burden.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the intraosseous use of a flexible endoscope during core decompression in identifying avascular bone in the femoral head that did not meet magnetic resonance imaging diagnostic criteria for osteonecrosis. The flexible endoscope was used to visually examine and locate avascular bone in the entire core track. A high-speed burr was then used to debride the...
