Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to determine the difference in failure rates of surgical repair for displaced femoral neck fractures in patients younger than 60 years of age according to fixation strategy. METHODS DESIGN This is a retrospective, comparative cohort study. SETTING Twenty-six Level 1 North American trauma centers. PATIENT SELECTION CRITERIA Patients younger than 60 years of age with a displaced femoral neck fracture (OTA 31-B2, B3) undergoing surgical repair from 2005 to 2017. OUTCOME MEASURES AND COMPARISONS Patient demographics, injury characteristics, repair methods used, and treatment failure (nonunion/failed fixation, avascular necrosis, and need for secondary surgery) were compared according to fixation strategy. RESULTS Five hundred and sixty-five patients met inclusion criteria and were studied. The mean age was 42 years, 36% were female, and the average Pauwels' angle of fractures was 55 degrees. There were 305 patients treated with multiple cannulated screws (MCS) and 260 treated with a fixed-angle (FA) construct. Treatment failures were 46% overall, but was more likely to occur in MCS constructs versus FA devices (55% vs. 36%, P < 0.001). When FA constructs were substratified, the use of a sliding hip screw with addition of a medial femoral neck buttress plate (FNBP) and "antirotation" (AR) screw demonstrated better results than either FNBP or AR screw alone or neither with the lowest overall construct failure rate of 11% (P < 0.036). CONCLUSIONS Historically used fixation constructs for femoral neck fractures (eg, multiple cannulated screws and sliding hip screw) in young and middle-aged adults performed poorly compared with more recently proposed constructs, including those using a medial femoral neck buttress plate and an antirotation screw. Fixed-angle constructs outperformed multiple cannulated screws overall, and augmentation of fixed-angle constructs with a medial femoral neck buttress plate and antirotation screw improved the likelihood of successful treatment. Surgeons should prioritize fixation decisions when repairing displaced femoral neck fractures in patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level III.

Abstract
Aims In this study, we aimed to visualize the spatial distribution characteristics of femoral head necrosis using a novel measurement method. Methods We retrospectively collected CT imaging data of 108 hips with non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head from 76 consecutive patients (mean age 34.3 years (SD 8.1), 56.58% male (n = 43)) in two clinical centres. The femoral head was divided into 288 standard units (based on the orientation of units within the femoral head, designated as N[Superior], S[Inferior], E[Anterior], and W[Posterior]) using a new measurement system called the longitude and latitude division system (LLDS). A computer-aided design (CAD) measurement tool was also developed to visualize the measurement of the spatial location of necrotic lesions in CT images. Two orthopaedic surgeons independently performed measurements, and the results were used to draw 2D and 3D heat maps of spatial distribution of necrotic lesions in the femoral head, and for statistical analysis. Results The results showed that the LLDS has high inter-rater reliability. As illustrated by the heat map, the distribution of Japanese Investigation Committee (JIC) classification type C necrotic lesions exhibited clustering characteristics, with the lesions being concentrated in the northern and eastern regions, forming a hot zone (90% probability) centred on the N4-N6E2, N3-N6E units of outer ring blocks. Statistical results showed that the distribution difference between type C2 and type C1 was most significant in the E1 and E2 units and, combined with the heat map, indicated that the spatial distribution differences at N3-N6E1 and N1-N3E2 units are crucial in understanding type C1 and C2 necrotic lesions. Conclusion The LLDS can be used to accurately measure the spatial location of necrotic lesions and display their distribution characteristics.

Abstract
The obvious degeneration of articular cartilage occurs in the late stage of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), which aggravates the condition of ONFH. This study aimed to demonstrate aberrant activation of autophagy processes in ONFH chondrocytes through bioinformatics and to predict and identify relevant hub genes and pathways. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified using R software in the GSE74089 dataset from the GEO database. DEGs were crossed with the Human Autophagy Database (HADb) autophagy genes to screen out autophagy-related differential genes (AT-DEGs). GSEA, GSVA, GO, and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses of AT-DEGs were performed. The STRING database was used to analyze the protein-protein interaction (PPI) of the AT-DEGs network, and the MCODE and CytoHubba plugin in the Cytoscape software was used to analyze the key gene cluster module and screen the hub genes. The PPI network of hub genes was constructed using the GeneMANIA database, and functional enrichment and gene connectivity categories were analyzed. The expression levels of hub genes of related genes in the ONFH patients were verified in the dataset GSE123568, and the protein expression was verified by immunohistochemistry in tissues. The analysis of DEGs revealed abnormal autophagy in ONFH cartilage. AT-DEGs in ONFH have special enrichment in macroautophagy, autophagosome membrane, and phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate binding. In the GSE123568 dataset, it was also found that ATG2B, ATG4B, and UVRAG were all significantly upregulated in ONFH patients. By immunohistochemistry, it was verified that ATG2B, ATG4B, and UVRAG were significantly overexpressed. These three genes regulate the occurrence and extension of autophagosomes through the PI3KC3C pathway. Finally, we determined that chondrocytes in ONFH undergo positive regulation of autophagy through the corresponding pathways involved in three genes: ATG2B, ATG4B, and UVRAG.

Abstract
Core decompression of the femoral head is a standard surgical procedure used in the early stages of the femoral head avascular necrosis (AVN) (Steinberg I to III). This study aimed to determine whether the advantages of osseoscopy-assisted core decompression using a standard arthroscopic set up in the early stages of AVN of the femoral head. Twelve hips of 12 patients who underwent osseoscopy-assisted core decompression and debridement with the diagnosis of AVN of the femoral head were reviewed between 2019 and 2021. The etiology was idiopathic in 2 patients; ten had a history of steroid use. The preoperative and postoperative first month Harris Hip Score (HHS) and visual analogue scale (VAS) were recorded. Standard X-rays, computerized tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were noted at preoperatively and sixth month follow-ups. In a 1-year follow-up, X-rays and MRIs were reviewed. All patients significantly improved in the VAS and HHS after the osseoscopy-assisted core decompression (P = .002). Two of the 12 patients with an initial stage of Steinberg IIC and IIB and one with Steinberg IA had a progressive femoral collapse and, therefore, had a total hip replacement at the end of the follow-up. Nine patients (75%) had satisfactory functional and radiological results in 1-year of follow-up. However, 3 patients (25%) culminated in total hip arthroplasty in a 1-year follow-up. Using an arthroscopic set up during osseoscopy-assisted core decompression surgery of the femoral head AVN has the benefits of direct visualization and accurate debridement of the involved area. The osseoscopy-assisted core decompression technique avoids excessive debridement of the healthy bone tissue adjacent to the necrotic area.

Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy for Bone Repair of Human Hip Osteonecrosis with Bilateral Match-Control Evaluation: Impact of Tissue Source, Cell Count, Disease Stage, and Volume Size on 908 Hips. Cells 2024; 13:776. [PMID: 38727312 PMCID: PMC11083454 DOI: 10.3390/cells13090776] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2024] [Revised: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024] Open
Abstract
We investigated the impact of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy on treating bilateral human hip osteonecrosis, analyzing 908 cases. This study assesses factors such as tissue source and cell count, comparing core decompression with various cell therapies. This research emphasizes bone repair according to pre-treatment conditions and the specificities of cell therapy in osteonecrosis repair, indicating a potential for improved bone repair strategies in hips without femoral head collapse. This study utilized a single-center retrospective analysis to investigate the efficacy of cellular approaches in the bone repair of osteonecrosis. It examined the impact on bone repair of tissue source (autologous bone marrow concentrate, allogeneic expanded, autologous expanded), cell quantity (from none in core decompression alone to millions in cell therapy), and osteonecrosis stage and volume. Excluding hips with femoral head collapse, it focused on patients who had bilateral hip osteonecrosis, both pre-operative and post-operative MRIs, and a follow-up of over five years. The analysis divided these patients into seven groups based on match control treatment variations in bilateral hip osteonecrosis, primarily investigating the outcomes between core decompression, washing effect, and different tissue sources of MSCs. Younger patients (<30 years) demonstrated significantly better repair volumes, particularly in stage II lesions, than older counterparts. Additionally, bone repair volume increased with the number of implanted MSCs up to 1,000,000, beyond which no additional benefits were observed. No significant difference was observed in repair outcomes between different sources of MSCs (BMAC, allogenic, or expanded cells). The study also highlighted that a 'washing effect' was beneficial, particularly for larger-volume osteonecrosis when combined with core decompression. Partial bone repair was the more frequent event observed, while total bone repair of osteonecrosis was rare. The volume and stage of osteonecrosis, alongside the number of injected cells, significantly affected treatment outcomes. In summary, this study provides comprehensive insights into the effectiveness and variables influencing the use of mesenchymal stem cells in treating human hip osteonecrosis. It emphasizes the potential of cell therapy while acknowledging the complexity and variability of results based on factors such as age, cell count, and disease stage.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sickle cell patients presented with progressive hip pain and limitation of daily activities, as evidenced by low preoperative hip scores and failed conservative therapy. Management of femoral head avascular necrosis (AVN) using total hip replacement (THR) in sickle cell disease (SCD) is widespread in developed countries, but it is still in its initiation stage in developing countries. The outcome of using cementless THR among SCD patients is still unknown with lack of published studies from regional countries. This study aimed to evaluate the outcome of using cementless primary THR among patients with sickle cell disease with end-stage hip avascular necrosis in Yemen. METHODS Thirty cementless primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) were performed for AVN of the femoral head in 27 sickle cell patients, at Al.-Thawra Modern General Hospital-Sana'a, Yemen, from January 2018 to December 2022. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 27 ± five years (ranged 18-37 years) with a male to female ratio was 3:1. Steinberg staging for hip AVN was stage IV, one patient (3%); stage VI, thirteen patients (45%); and stage V, sixteen patients (51%). THR was on right side 14 (52%), left side 10 (37%), and bilateral 3 (11%). The implant used was ceramic on polyethylene acetabular liner. All patients showed improvement in Harris hip score from preoperative mean hip score was 25 ± 8 points to postoperative mean hip score was 88 ± 6 points at the last follow-up. Mean of the length of stay in hospital was 12.7 ± eight days (ranged from 4 to 32 days); the mean operating time was 107 ± 23 min. Three cases had superficial wound infection; four patients had five intraoperative fractures; two cases had pulmonary complications; one case had abdominal crisis. All patients had postoperative leg length discrepancy less than 2 cm. None had deep infection, nerve injury, wound hematoma, aseptic loosing, dislocation, DVT, heterotopic ossification, or death. CONCLUSION THR in SCD has a good outcome using cementless THA with a low rate of complication in Yemen, a developing country.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No large cohort study has evaluated the surgical outcomes of THA between different stages of ONFH patients. This study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes of ONFH patients who underwent THA in ARCO stage III versus IV, in terms of operative parameters, one-year hip function assessments and postoperative at least five-year complications, to inform optimized management of ONFH. METHOD From our prospectively collected database, 876 patients undergoing THA between October 2014 and April 2017 were analyzed and divided into ARCO stage III group (n = 383) and ARCO stage IV group(n = 493). Details of demographics, medical record information, adverse events and clinical scores of both groups were collected and compared. Proper univariate analysis was used for the analysis. RESULT There were no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups. Compared to ARCO stage IV patients, ARCO stage III patients showed a shorter operative time (p < 0.01), less bleeding (p < 0.01), fewer one-year readmissions (p = 0.026) and complications (p = 0.040), and significantly higher HHS (p < 0.01) one year after THA. In addition, ARCO stage IV patients seem more likely to suffer prosthesis dislocation (p = 0.031). CONCLUSION Although ARCO stage IV patients in the study cohorts appeared to suffer more one-year complications, no significant difference was observed at long-term follow-up. Enhanced clinical guidance on preventing early prosthesis dislocation may help improve the prognosis of final-stage ONFH patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a disease that occurs frequently in young and middle-aged people. Because of its high disability rate, it affects the ability to work, so the early treatment of this disease is particularly important. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of hip arthroscopy combined with multiple small-diameter fan-shaped low-speed drilling decompression (MSFLD) in treating early-mid stage ONFH (ARCO II-IIIA) compared to MSFLD, with at least 10-year follow-up. METHODS A total of 234 patients who underwent hip arthroscopy and MSFLD for ONFH from 1998 to 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. This study enrolled patients between 18 and 60 years old with ARCO stage II-III A, diagnosed clinically and through imaging, in accordance with the 2021 guidelines for the treatment of ONFH. Clinical data, including demographics, operation mode, BMI, pre- and postoperative Harris score, and femoral head survival rate, were collected. Patients were divided into hip arthroscopy + MSFLD and MSFLD groups based on the operation mode. The t-test was used to compare the postoperative efficacy, Harris scores, and survival rates of the femoral head between the two groups. RESULTS Among the 234 patients, 160 cases were followed up, including 92 cases in the hip arthroscopy + MSFLD group and 68 cases in MSFLD group, the follow-up rate was 68.38%, and the follow-up time was (10-22)14.11 ± 3.06 years. The Harris score (80.65 ± 6.29) in the hip arthroscopy + MSFLD group was significantly higher than that in the MSFLD group (p = 0.00), and the survival rate of femoral head (5-year survival rate was 84.78%, 10-year survival rate was 23.91%) was also higher than that in the MSFLD group (5-year survival rate was 63.24%, 10-year survival rate was 8.82%). The 5-year and 10-year survival rates of patients with ARCO II were 82.11% and 28.42%, which were better than 54% and 33% for ARCO III A. The femur head survival rate of alcoholic ONFH (5-year survival rate 61.54%, 10-year survival rate 9.23%) was significantly higher than that of other types of ONFH. CONCLUSION Clinical follow-up of at least 10 years suggests that hip arthroscopy combined with MSFLD is an effective treatment for early-mid stage ONFH, with good clinical effect and high survival rate of femoral head.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate classification can facilitate the selection of appropriate interventions to delay the progression of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). This study aimed to perform the classification of ONFH through a deep learning approach. METHODS We retrospectively sampled 1,806 midcoronal magnetic resonance images (MRIs) of 1,337 hips from 4 institutions. Of these, 1,472 midcoronal MRIs of 1,155 hips were divided into training, validation, and test datasets with a ratio of 7:1:2 to develop a convolutional neural network model (CNN). An additional 334 midcoronal MRIs of 182 hips were used to perform external validation. The predictive performance of the CNN and the review panel was also compared. RESULTS A multiclass CNN model was successfully developed. In internal validation, the overall accuracy of the CNN for predicting the severity of ONFH based on the Japanese Investigation Committee classification was 87.8%. The macroaverage values of area under the curve (AUC), precision, recall, and F-value were 0.90, 84.8, 84.8, and 84.6%, respectively. In external validation, the overall accuracy of the CNN was 83.8%. The macroaverage values of area under the curve, precision, recall, and F-value were 0.87, 79.5, 80.5, and 79.9%, respectively. In a human-machine comparison study, the CNN outperformed or was comparable to that of the deputy chief orthopaedic surgeons. CONCLUSION The CNN is feasible and robust for classifying ONFH and correctly locating the necrotic area. These findings suggest that classifying ONFH using deep learning with high accuracy and generalizability may aid in predicting femoral head collapse and clinical decision-making.

Abstract
The study was aimed to investigate microarchitecture of osteochondral junction in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). We hypothesis that there were microarchitecture alternations in osteochondral junction and regional differences between the necrotic region (NR) and adjacent non-necrotic region(ANR) in patients with ONFH. Femoral heads with ONFH or femoral neck fracture were included in ONFH group (n = 11) and control group (n = 11). Cylindrical specimens were drilled on the NR/ANR of femoral heads in ONFH group and matched positions in control group (CO.NR/ CO.ANR). Histology, micro-CT, and scanning electron microscope were used to investigate microarchitecture of osteochondral junction. Layered analysis of subchondral bone plate was underwent. Mankin scores on NR were higher than that on ANR or CO.NR, respectively (P < 0.001, P < 0.001). Calcified cartilage zone on the NR and ANR was thinner than that on the CO.NR and CO.ANR, respectively (P = 0.002, P = 0.002). Tidemark roughness on the NR was larger than that on the ANR (P = 0.002). Subchondral bone plate of NR and ANR was thicker than that on the CON.NR and CON.ANR, respectively (P = 0.002, P = 0.009). Bone volume fraction of subchondral bone plate on the NR was significantly decreasing compared to ANR and CON.NR, respectively (P = 0.015, P = 0.002). Subchondral bone plate on the NR had larger area percentages and more numbers of micropores than ANR and CON.NR (P = 0.002/0.002, P = 0.002/0.002). Layered analysis showed that bone mass loss and hypomineralization were mainly on the cartilage side of subchondral bone plate in ONFH. There were microarchitecture alternations of osteochondral junction in ONFH, including thinned calcified cartilage zone, thickened subchondral bone plate, decreased bone mass, altered micropores, and hypomineralization of subchondral bone plate. Regional differences in microarchitecture of osteochondral junction were found between necrotic regions and adjacent non-necrotic regions. Subchondral bone plate in ONFH had uneven distribution of bone volume fraction and bone mineral density, which might aggravate cartilage degeneration by affecting the transmission of mechanical stresses.

Abstract
Bone marrow edema (BME) of the hip is a radiological-clinical condition with symptoms ranging from asymptomatic to severe, and it is characterized by increased interstitial fluid within the bone marrow, usually at the femur. Depending on the etiology it can be classified as primary or secondary. The primary cause of BME is unknown, while the secondary forms include traumatic, degenerative, inflammatory, vascular, infectious, metabolic, iatrogenic, and neoplastic etiologies. BME could be classified as reversible or progressive. Reversible forms include transient BME syndrome and regional migratory BME syndrome. Progressive forms include avascular necrosis of the femoral head (AVNH), subchondral insufficiency fracture, and hip degenerative arthritis. The diagnosis can be difficult, because at the beginning, the outbreak of hip pain, typically acute and disabling without any prior trauma or exceptional physical activity, is poorly supported by radiographic findings. MRI is the gold standard, and it shows an area of intermediate signal on T1-weighted MRI scans and a high signal on T2-weighted scans, usually lacking sharps margins. In the reversible form, BME is typically self-limiting, and it can be managed conservatively by means of pharmacological and physical therapy. Surgery is generally required for progressive forms in patients who failed non-operative treatment, and it ranges from femoral head and neck core decompression to total hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
Objectives Although osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a prevalent condition, its effects on gait parameters have not been thoroughly studied and are not well-established in the current literature. The primary aim of the present study is to describe gait in patients with a diagnosis of osteonecrosis. Methods This is a cross-sectional study. Nine patients diagnosed with osteonecrosis of the femoral head who were regularly followed-up at an outpatient clinic were selected for the present study and underwent gait analysis using Vicon Motion Capture Systems. Spatiotemporal data was obtained, and joint angles were calculated using an Euler angle coordinate system. Distal coordinate systems were used to calculate joint moments and force plates to obtain ground reaction forces. Results Patients with osteonecrosis presented with slower velocity (0.54 m/s ± 0.19) and smaller cadence (83.01 steps/min ± 13.23) than healthy patients. The pelvic obliquity range of motion was of 10.12° ± 3.03 and rotation was of 18.23° ± 9.17. The mean hip flexion was of 9.48° ± 3.40. Ground reaction forces showed reduced braking and propelling forces. Joint moments were reduced for flexion and adduction (0.42 Nm/kg ± 0.2 and 0.30 Nm/kg ± 0.11, respectively) but the abduction moment was increased (0.42 Nm/kg ± 0.18). Conclusions The present study showed that osteonecrosis of the femoral head presents compensatory gait mechanisms, with increased pelvic motion and decreased knee flexion to protect the hip joint. Decreased moments for hip flexion and adduction were also identified and muscle weakness for those groups may be correlated to the disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is estimated at more than 20,000 patients annually in the US. Our study aimed to provide a 10-year analysis: 1) evaluating total operative procedures with rates normalized to the population; 2) determining trends of arthroplasty versus joint-preserving procedures; and 3) quantifying specific operative techniques in patients <50 versus >50 years of age. METHODS A total of 64,739 patients who were diagnosed with ONFH and underwent hip surgery were identified from a nationwide database between 2010 and 2020. The percentage of patients managed by each operative procedure was calculated and normalized to the overall population annually. Patients were grouped into joint-preserving versus non-joint-preserving (arthroplasty) procedures, and divided by age under/over 50 years. Linear regression modeling was performed to evaluate trends/differences in procedural volume by year. RESULTS The number of operative procedures to treat ONFH has relatively declined from 2010 to 2020. The relative proportion of joint-preserving procedures increased (8.6% to 11.2%) during this time period. There were significantly more joint-preserving procedures in patients aged <50 years relative to >50 years (15.3% versus 2.7%, P < .001). Overall, THA was the most common procedure (57,033;88.1%) relative to hemiarthroplasty (3,875;6.0%), core decompression (2,730;4.2%), bone graft (467;0.7%), and osteotomy (257;0.4%). CONCLUSION Surgical management of patients who have ONFH remains predominantly arthroplasty procedures (94% overall). Our findings suggest an increase in joint-preserving procedures, particularly core decompression, in patients <50 years (15.3%). Our findings provide insight into surgical management trends for ONFH, and suggest opportunities for joint-preserving procedures.

Revisiting prediction of collapse in hip osteonecrosis with artificial intelligence and machine learning: a new approach for quantifying and ranking the contribution and association of factors for collapse. INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2023; 47:677-689. [PMID: 36374346 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-022-05631-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study proposes machine learning to analyze the risk factors of the collapse in patients with non-traumatic hip osteonecrosis of the femoral head. METHODS We collected data of 900 consecutive patients (634 males) with bilateral (428) or unilateral non-traumatic osteonecrosis diagnosed before collapse (at stage I or stage II). The follow-up was average five years (3 to 8 years). A total of 50 variables related to the osteonecrosis were included in the study. The osteonecroses were randomly divided into a training set (80%) and a validation set (20%) with a similar percentage of hips with collapse in the two groups. Machine learning (ML) algorithms were trained with the selected variables. Performance was evaluated and the different factors (variables) for collapse were ranked with Shapley values. The primary outcome was prediction of occurrence of collapse from automated inventory systems. RESULTS In this series of patients, the accuracy with machine learning for predicting collapse within three years follow-up was 81.2%. Accuracies for predicting collapse within six to 12-24 months were 54.2%, 67.3%, and 71.2%, respectively, demonstrating that the accuracy is lower for a prevision in the short term than for the mid-term. Despite none of the risk-factors alone achieving statistical significance for prediction, the system allowed ranking the different variables for risk of collapse. The highest risk factors for collapse were sickle cell disease, liver, and cardiac transplantation treated with corticosteroids, osteonecrosis volume > 50% of the femoral head. Cancer (such as leukemia), alcohol abuse, lupus erythematosus, Crohn's disease, pemphigus vulgaris treated with corticosteroids, and osteonecrosis volume between 40 and 50% were medium risk factors for collapse. Familial cluster of collapse, HIV infection, chronic renal failure, nephrotic syndrome, and renal transplantation, when treated with corticosteroids, stage II, osteonecrosis volume between 30 and 40%, chemotherapy, hip pain with VAS > 6, and collapse progression on the contralateral side, were also significant but lowest risk factors. A heat map is proposed to illustrate the ranking of the combinations of the different variables. The highest risk of collapse is obtained with association of various risks factors. CONCLUSION This study, for the first time, demonstrated prediction of collapse and ranking of factors for collapse with a machine learning system. This study also shows that collapse is due to a multifactorial risk factors.

Abstract
Individuals with sickle cell disease (SCD) often experience numerous vaso-occlusive crisis events throughout their lives, which can progress to severe damage of several organs, including avascular necrosis, also known as osteonecrosis (ON). Osteonecrosis is one of the most devastating musculoskeletal clinical manifestations of sickle cell disease, afflicting up to 50% of the SCD patients. Herein, a NMR-based untargeted metabolomics approach was used to assess the metabolome alterations of blood plasma and bone marrow interstitial fluid (BMIF) samples of SCD patients with osteonecrosis. Furthermore, biochemical signatures associated with different osteonecrosis stages were assessed by analysing the metabolome of blood plasma and bone marrow interstitial fluid samples of SCD patients with different stages of the disease based on the Fiat and Arlet classification (FAC). Multivariate statistical analysis allowed a clear discrimination between the studied groups and it provided important insights into the different osteonecrosis stages. Citrate was pointed out as a possible biomarker to differentiate SCD patients with and without osteonecrosis. Acetate, creatinine, histidine, tyrosine, glucose, and NI5 seems to be key metabolites associated to different stages of the disease. Although this is a pioneer exploratory study, we acknowledge that fact that it is limited by the group sizes and absence of a validation cohort. Nevertheless, multivariate statistical analyses indicated that the metabolome of blood plasma and BMIF samples encompasses a complex metabolic regulation system for osteonecrosis.

Abstract
To characterize pathoetiologic associations of heritable thrombophilia-hypofibrinolysis with idiopathic (primary) multifocal osteonecrosis (ON) (≥3 ON anatomic sites), we prospectively studied 28 women and 12 men with primary multifocal ON compared with 27 women and 24 men with primary nonmultifocal ON (<3 sites) and 110 healthy controls without ON. The 40 cases with primary multifocal ON differed from controls for 3 familial thrombophilias: Factor V Leiden heterozygosity (6 of 40 [15%] vs 2 of 109 [2%], P=.002), G20210A prothrombin gene heterozygosity (6 of 40 [15%] vs 3 of 110 [3%], P=.011), and high (>150%) Factor VIII (8 of 40 [20%] vs 7 of 103 [7%], P=.031). These case-control familial coagulation differences paralleled those in 51 concurrently evaluated cases with primary nonmulti-focal ON, 7 of 51 (14%) of whom had Factor V Leiden heterozygosity vs 2% of controls (P=.005) and 14 of 44 (32%) of whom had high Factor VIII vs 7 of 103 (7%) of controls (P=.0002). Recognition of familial thrombophilia as a common pathoetiology of primary multifocal ON provides an opportunity for early anticoagulation (before joint collapse), allowing both prophylaxis and therapy aimed at relieving pain and slowing or stopping progression of the disease to joint collapse.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glucocorticoid usage and alcohol abuse are the most widely accepted risk factors for nontraumatic osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH). Despite distinct etiologies between glucocorticoid-associated ONFH (GONFH) and alcohol-associated ONFH (AONFH), little is known about the differences of the microarchitectural and histomorphologic characteristics between these subtypes of ONFH. PURPOSES To investigate bone microarchitecture, bone remodeling activity and histomorphology characteristics of different regions in femoral heads between GONFH and AONFH. METHODS From September 2015 to October 2020, 85 patients diagnosed with GONFH and AONFH were recruited. Femoral heads were obtained after total hip replacement. Femoral head specimens were obtained from 42 patients (50 hips) with GONFH and 43 patients (50 hips) with AONFH. Micro-CT was utilized to assess the microstructure of 9 regions of interest (ROIs) in the femoral head. Along the supero-inferior orientation, the femoral head was divided into necrotic region, reactive interface, and normal region; along the medio-lateral orientation, the femoral head was divided into medial region, central region and lateral region. Decalcified and undecalcified bone histology was subsequently performed to evaluate histopathological alterations and bone remodeling levels. RESULTS In the necrotic region, most of the microarchitectural parameters did not differ significantly between GONFH and AONFH, whereas both the reactive interface and normal region revealed a less sclerotic microarchitecture but a higher bone remodeling level in GONFH than AONFH. Despite similar necrotic pathological manifestations, subchondral trabecular microfracture in the necrotic region was more severe and vasculature of the reactive interface was more abundant in GONFH. CONCLUSIONS GONFH and AONFH shared similar microarchitecture and histopathological features in the necrotic region, while GONFH exhibited a less sclerotic microarchitecture and a more active bone metabolic status in both the reactive interface and normal region. These differences between GONFH and AONFH in bone microarchitectural and histopathological characteristics might contribute to the development of disease-modifying prevention strategies and treatments for ONFH, taking into etiologies.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis associated with the use of glucocorticoids is a severe, potentially debilitating complication. In broader terms, it commonly involves the femoral head with secondary hip osteoarthritis. Osteonecrosis can also be caused by trauma and other non-traumatic factors besides steroid treatment. Nonetheless, glucocorticoid use is frequently observed in clinical settings in which this represents a common therapeutic option, including general practice, rheumatology and clinical immunology, among others. The pathogenesis involves genetic components, vascular impairment, adipocyte hypertrophy, and increased intraosseous pressure, ultimately leading to marrow and bone ischemia and necrosis and the process rapidly becomes irreversible. Osteonecrosis manifests with pain and impaired motility while the diagnosis is usually made with magnetic resonance imaging allowing early detection and potentially (dependent on the patient's needs for steroids and stage) timely management with conservative options, followed by joint replacement at late stages. In this review we discuss the pathogenesis, risk factors, diagnosis, staging, and management of this complication associated with glucocorticoid treatment.

J Hip Preserv Surg 2022; 9:197-205. [PMID: 35992024 PMCID: PMC9389913 DOI: 10.1093/jhps/hnac035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2022] [Revised: 04/19/2022] [Accepted: 07/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA) following less invasive hip-preserving procedures (LIHPs) and present a critical overview of the literature to aid in better result interpretation. The search time was from the establishment of the database to September 2021, and the outcome indicators were extracted and analyzed by Cochrane Collaboration Review Manager software (RevMan version 5.4). Finally, 10 articles were included in this meta-analysis by searching Chinese databases and English databases. Three of them were published in Chinese, and the remaining studies were published in English. LIHP was further divided into the tantalum rod implantation group and the non-tantalum rod implantation group. The results showed that prior tantalum rod implantation increased the difficulty of conversion to THA, which was reflected mainly in the longer operative time [weighted mean difference (WMD) = 24.50, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 14.09–34.91, P < 0.00001] and greater intraoperative blood loss (WMD = 114.74, 95% CI = 33.52–195.96, P = 0.006), while no significant difference was found between the non-tantalum rod implantation group and the control group. Simultaneously, easier intraoperative fracture [odds ratio (OR) = 5.88, 95% CI = 0.93–37.05, P = 0.06] and stem malalignment (OR = 4.17, 95% CI = 1.18–14.71, P = 0.03) in the LIHP group tended to be observed than in the control THA group. However, there was no significant difference in cup anteversion and inclination angle, ectopic ossification, postoperative Harris Hip Score and survivorship between the LIHP group and the control group. Although LIHP increased the difficulty of the conversion to THA, it does not detrimentally affect the clinical results of subsequent THA in the mid-term follow-up.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although tongue manifestation is a vital component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), relevant research on patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is still lacking. This study will explore the characteristic tongue manifestation of ONFH patients to inform future research and clinical practice. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study. All ONFH patients meeting criteria and their clinical data were collected from the online China osteonecrosis of the femoral head database (CONFHD) since it was created. Organized tongue manifestations of eligible patients through the tongue manifestation acquisition instrument, including tongue shape, tongue color, tongue coating thickness, tongue coating color and tongue coating moisture. We used descriptive analysis for the general information while systematic clustering analysis for the better summary of tongue characteristics. RESULTS A total of 375 ONFH patients were included with an average age of 46.3 years. Most patients appeared with enlarged tongue body (54.4%), and the proportions of pale and red tongue (62.4%) were higher than others. Tongue coating were mainly showed as thick (64.5%), white (57.6%) and moist (79.7%). Comparison of tongue shape between different causes of ONFH had a significant statistically difference (P = 0.000). Tongue manifestations could be cluster analyzed into three categories which were matched into four TCM syndromes. CONCLUSIONS The tongue manifestation of ONFH patients has a significant change both in tongue body and coating, and different features may be related to the ONFH pathology. This study provides new and valuable tongue informations for a preliminary screening of ONFH patients.

Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head: A Multidisciplinary Approach in Diagnostic Accuracy. Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12071731. [PMID: 35885636 PMCID: PMC9324583 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12071731] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2022] [Revised: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 07/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head (ONFH) is a disabling disease affecting up to 30,000 people yearly in the United States alone. Diagnosis and staging of this pathology are both technically and logistically challenging, usually relying on imaging studies. Even anatomopathological studies, considered the gold standard for identifying ONFH, are not exempt from problems. In addition, the diagnosis is often made by different healthcare specialists, including orthopedic surgeons and radiologists, using different imaging modes, macroscopic features, and stages. Therefore, it is not infrequent to find disagreements between different specialists. The aim of this paper is to clarify the association and accuracy of ONFH diagnosis between healthcare professionals. To this end, femoral head specimens from patients with a diagnosis of ONFH were collected from patients undergoing hip replacement surgery. These samples were later histologically analyzed to establish an ONFH diagnosis. We found that clinico-radiological diagnosis of ONFH evidences a high degree of histological confirmation, thus showing an acceptable diagnostic accuracy. However, when the diagnoses of radiologists and orthopedic surgeons are compared with each other, there is only a moderate agreement. Our results underscore the need to develop an effective diagnosis based on a multidisciplinary approach to enhance currently limited accuracy and reliability.

[PMID: 35701994 PMCID: PMC9251322 DOI: 10.1111/os.13334] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2021] [Revised: 05/12/2022] [Accepted: 05/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether more precise cup positioning can be achieved with robot-assisted total hip arthroplasty (THA) as compared to conventional THA. METHODS In this study, between July 2019 and May 2021, 93 patients aged 23-75 years with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) and adult developmental dysplasia of hip who underwent first hip surgery were included in the study. They were randomly assigned to either the robotic-assisted THA group (n = 45) or the conventional THA group (n = 48). After the operation, all patients were given routine rapid rehabilitation guidance. The duration of operation was recorded to estimate the learning curve through cumulative summation analysis. We compared the demographics, duration of operation, cup positioning, leg length discrepancy, hip offset, and Harris Hip Score between robot-assisted THA and manual THA. Precision in the positioning of the acetabular prosthesis using the MAKO system was also compared between the two groups. RESULTS The mean duration of operation for the robot-assisted THA group was 91.37 ± 17.34 min (range: 63 to 135 min), which was significantly higher than that for the conventional THA group. When the number of procedures was increased to 13, the duration of operation in the robot-assisted group decreased significantly and gradually became stable. In terms of duration of operation, robot-assisted THA was associated with a learning curve of 13 cases. The mean amount of bleeding in the robot-assisted THA group was not significantly different from that in conventional THA group (328 ± 210 ml vs 315 ± 205 ml) (p = 0.741). There was no significant difference in the proportion of prostheses located within Lewinnek's safe zone between robot-assisted THA group and conventional THA group (69.81% vs 64.41%). The leg length discrepancy (LLD) was significantly smaller in the robot-assisted THA group than in the conventional THA group (p < 0.001), but both were within acceptable limits (10 mm). The inclination and anteversion angles of the acetabular prosthesis planned before operations were correlated with the actual measurement (r = 0.857 p < 0.001, r = 0.830, p < 0.001). After surgery, none of the patients experienced hip dislocation, aseptic loosening, or periprosthetic infection during the 3 months of follow-up. CONCLUSION The proportion of acetabular prostheses in the Lewinnek's safety zone was higher and the extent of LLD was significantly lower in the robot-assisted THA group, as compared to the same metrics in the conventional THA group. The MAKO robot improved the accuracy of implant placement in THA.

The 2021 Association Research Circulation Osseous Classification for Early-Stage Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head to Computed Tomography-Based Study. J Arthroplasty 2022; 37:1074-1082. [PMID: 35151809 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2022.02.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2021] [Revised: 01/24/2022] [Accepted: 02/03/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Association Research Circulation Osseous developed a novel classification for early-stage (precollapse) osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). We hypothesized that the novel classification is more reliable and valid when compared to previous 3 classifications: Steinberg, modified Kerboul, and Japanese Investigation Committee classifications. METHODS In the novel classification, necrotic lesions were classified into 3 types: type 1 is a small lesion, where the lateral necrotic margin is medial to the femoral head apex; type 2 is a medium-sized lesion, with the lateral necrotic margin being between the femoral head apex and the lateral acetabular edge; and type 3 is a large lesion, which extends outside the lateral acetabular edge. In a derivation cohort of 40 early-stage osteonecrotic hips based on computed tomography imaging, reliabilities were evaluated using kappa coefficients, and validities to predict future femoral head collapse by chi-squared tests and receiver operating characteristic curve analyses. The predictability for future collapse was also evaluated in a validation cohort of 104 early-stage ONFH. RESULTS In the derivation cohort, interobserver reliability (k = 0.545) and intraobserver agreement (63%-100%) of the novel method were higher than the other 3 classifications. The novel classification system was best able to predict future collapse (P < .05) and had the best discrimination between non-progressors and progressors in both the derivation cohort (area under the curve = 0.692 [0.522-0.863], P < .05) and the validation cohort (area under the curve = 0.742 [0.644-0.841], P = 2.46 × 10-5). CONCLUSION This novel classification is a highly reliable and valid method of those examined. Association Research Circulation Osseous recommends using this method as a unified classification for early-stage ONFH. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, diagnostic study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a multifactorial disease, and agnogenic ONFH, otherwise known as idiopathic ONFH, is rare in clinic. Idiopathic ONFH that exhibits severe necrosis and progresses extremely rapidly is called rapidly destructive hip disease (RDHD). RDHD greatly affects patients but is rarely reported in clinical practice and literature. CASE PRESENTATION In this study, a 64-year-old male patient with complete collapse and necrosis of the right femoral head complicated with severe bone destruction at 10 months after left total hip arthroplasty (THA) was reported. The period from the intact structure of the right femoral head to the first discovery of its complete collapse, according to imaging results, was 7 months. The duration from the occurrence of symptoms in the right hip joint to the first discovery of complete collapse and necrosis of the femoral head was only 5 months. At present, the cause has not been determined based on medical history, symptoms, signs, imaging evaluation results, laboratory examination results, and pathological examination results, though it has been identified as severe idiopathic aseptic necrosis of the femoral head with rapid progression, or RDHD. Finally, right THA was performed, and a good outcome was observed in the patient at present. CONCLUSIONS As a rare hip joint disease, RDHD greatly influences the normal life of patients. RDHD of the contralateral side after unilateral THA is even scarcer. Left THA may be one of the important factors accelerating the necrosis of the right femoral head. Hopefully, with this case report, more attention will be paid to the contralateral hip joint in patients undergoing unilateral THA by clinicians and rehabilitation physicians, and a clinical reference will be provided for the research on RDHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aim to report the consecutive patients diagnosed with osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH) following recovery from COVID-19 disease and elucidate the unique features of ONFH associated with COVID-19. METHODS Consecutive 22 patients (39 hips) recovered from COVID-19 and presented with ONFH from November 2020 to October 2021 were included. All the patients received corticosteroids as a supportive treatment during COVID-19. Patients were classified into two types based on the type of presentation, namely classic ONFH and rapidly destructive coxarthrosis (RDC) depending on radiographs, MRI, inflammatory markers and hip aspiration findings. Harris hip score was used to evaluate the functional outcome before and after treatment. RESULTS The mean time to diagnose of ONFH from the onset of hip symptoms was 39.3 days (range 10-90 days). The average duration of onset of hip symptoms after COVID 19 infection was 7.5 months (range 3 - 11 months). The average cumulative dose of methylprednisolone equivalent was 811 mg (range 200-2100 mg) and the average duration of steroid intake was 2.8 weeks. There was significant elevation in the inflammatory markers in RDC group compared to classic ONFH (p < 0.05). The Harris hip score improved from 63.6 ± 23.2 at presentation to 82.6 ± 9.6 after treatment (p < 0.05). Three patients had features of RDC. Among the three patients with RDC, two patients had rapid progression of ONFH and underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA). The third patient is awaiting a THA. CONCLUSION ONFH after COVID-19 can have a varied presentation. While the most common presentation is like classical ONFH, some patients can have an acute and aggressive presentation with rapid destruction. They have features like elevated serological markers and extensive periarticular bone and soft tissue edema. A low cumulative dose of steroids in our patients suggests that the COVID-19-associated vasculitis may play a role in the pathogenesis of ONFH.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is caused when circulation within the femoral head is disrupted. Etiology of this disease is characterized by either traumatic events or atraumatic risk factors, such as chronic alcohol consumption or glucocorticoid use. ONFH commonly presents as pain in the groin, gluteus muscles, and/or knee with reductions in internal rotation range of motion of the hip. ONFH pathology can be confirmed with radiographic or advanced imaging and characterized by stage, size and location of the lesion. Treatment for ONFH consists of conservative and therapeutic methods as well as surgical intervention. Historically, ONFH has been treated using total hip arthroplasty (THA), but with increasing incidence in a younger, active population, measures to preserve the native hip joint have been explored. Recent advancements in hip arthroscopy and arthroscopy-assisted core decompression have led to improved outcomes, reduced pain and higher hip survival rate for early onset ONFH compared with more invasive approaches such as THA. Biologic treatments combined with arthroscopic core decompression have also shown improved outcomes and quality of life in few reports, suggesting a potential role for biologic adjuncts. The current study provides a comprehensive review and update on the literature surrounding arthroscopy-assisted core decompression for patients with ONFH.

Front Cell Dev Biol 2022; 10:857612. [PMID: 35392165 PMCID: PMC8980611 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2022.857612] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2022] [Accepted: 03/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The lack of effective biomarkers makes it difficult to achieve early diagnosis and intervention for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Hence, we aimed to identify novel long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) biomarkers for ONFH. Methods: High-throughput RNA sequencing was performed to detect lncRNA and mRNA expression levels in subchondral bone samples from three patients with ONFH and three patients with femoral neck fractures. Integrated bioinformatics analyses were conducted to identify lncRNAs associated with ONFH development and their potential functions and signaling pathways. A co-expression network was constructed based on the gene time-series expression data in GSE113253. After selecting lncRNA GAS5 as a novel biomarker for ONFH, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) osteogenic differentiation assays were performed to verify the association between lncRNA GAS5 and osteogenic differentiation. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) were used to measure the osteogenic phenotype and lncRNA GAS5 expression. Finally, for further validation, ONFH rat models were established, and lncRNA GAS5 expression in subchondral bone was detected by RT-qPCR. Results: We identified 126 and 959 differentially expressed lncRNAs and genes, respectively. lncRNA GAS5 expression level was significantly downregulated in patients with ONFH compared to the control group patients. The BMSC osteogenic differentiation assays showed that ALP activity increased gradually from days 3 to 7, while the lncRNA GAS5 expression level was significantly upregulated in the osteogenic differentiation induction groups. Furthermore, in vivo experiments suggested that the bone volume/tissue volume value and trabecular thickness significantly decreased in the ONFH rat model group compared to the control group, whereas the trabecular space significantly increased in the ONFH group compared to the control group. In addition, the lncRNA GAS5 expression level significantly decreased in the ONFH rat model group. Conclusion: The lncRNA GAS5 expression level was highly associated with BMSC osteogenic differentiation and was significantly downregulated in both the subchondral trabecular bone tissue of ONFH patients and ONFH rat models. Therefore, lncRNA GAS5 can serve as an ONFH osteogenic biomarker to provide an effective target for early diagnosis and molecular therapy of ONFH.

Abstract
Aim: Sickle cell disease (SCD) has significant adverse psychosocial impacts in childhood. Patients with SCD may be affected by avascular necrosis (AVN) and the most commonly involved site is the femoral head. We aimed to conduct a comparative investigation of the psychosocial well-being of pediatric SCD patients with preclinical and clinical femoral head AVN. Materials and Methods: Patients with homozygous SCD and healthy peers aged 7-17 years were included in this cross-sectional study. Psychosocial well-being was assessed by the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), parent version. SDQ scores were compared between the groups. Results: A total of 74 mother–child couples were enrolled in this study. The SCD with clinical AVN (stages I-IV) group consisted of 17 patients, SCD with preclinical AVN (stage 0) group consisted of 20 patients, and the control group consisted of 37 individuals. The sociodemographic characteristics and medians of total difficulties, emotional problems, conduct problems, hyperactivity, and peer problems scores were not different between the 3 groups (P > .05). There was a significant difference between the 3 groups in the prosocial score that indicates more positive social behaviors. Both groups, SCD with clinical AVN and with preclinical AVN, had lower prosocial scores than the control group (P < .001). The 2 patient groups did not differ in any SDQ scores or disease-related characteristics of vaso-occlusive crises and blood/exchange transfusions in the recent year (P > .05). Conclusions: Pediatric patients with SCD, whether or not complicated with clinical AVN, had lower prosocial scores than healthy peers. This study has presented the first comparison of the psychosocial well-being of pediatric SCD patients with preclinical and clinical femoral head AVN.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Avascular necrosis (AVN) after femoral neck fracture (FNF) is a rare and severe paediatric condition, but only few studies described its prognosis and risk factors. The present study aimed to evaluate the outcomes and independent factors for poor prognosis of AVN after FNF in children and adolescents. METHOD This retrospective study included children and adolescents with AVN after FNF who received conservative treatment (CT group) or non-vascularized bone grafting (NVBG group) between 2000 and 2018. The primary outcomes were the risk of hip arthritis (Tönnis grade) and hip deformity risk (Stulberg classification). All patients were followed for at least two years to assess AVN progression. RESULTS Study included 81 patients. In the CT group, 23/43 patients (53.4%) developed hip arthritis, and 24/43 patients (55.8%) showed hip deformity. In the NVBG group, 23/38 patients (60.5%) developed hip arthritis, and 34/38 patients (89.5%) had a hip deformity. The multivariable analysis indicated that NVBG surgery had no significant effect on the outcomes. Post-treatment femoral head collapse (P = 0.05, OR = 3.80, 95% CI = 1.01-14.29) and post-treatment hip subluxation (P = 0.01, OR = 2.85, 95% CI = 2.31-129.56) were independent risk factors for severe hip arthritis. Post-treatment femoral head collapse (P < 0.01, OR = 7.64, 95% CI = 3.23-18.04) and pre-treatment hip subluxation (P = 0.02, OR = 7.33, 95% CI = 1.44-37.41) were independent risk factors for severe hip deformity. CONCLUSION Neither CT nor NVBG have demonstrated superiority regarding long-term outcomes in patients with AVN after FNF. Upon the disease progression to severe collapse with subluxation and severe arthritis, further hip preservation attempts could be futile.

Abstract
Background Pain, a major symptom of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), is a complex sensory and emotional experience that presents therapeutic challenges. Pain can cause neuroplastic changes at the cortical level, leading to central sensitization and difficulties with curative treatments; however, whether changes in structural and functional plasticity occur in patients with ONFH remains unclear. Methods A total of 23 ONFH inpatients who did not undergo surgery (14 males, nine females; aged 55.61 ± 13.79 years) and 20 controls (12 males, eight females; aged 47.25 ± 19.35 years) were enrolled. Functional indices of the amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF), regional homogeneity (ReHo), and a structural index of tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS) were calculated for each participant. The probability distribution of fiber direction was determined according to the ALFF results. Results ONFH patients demonstrated increased ALFF in the bilateral dorsolateral superior frontal gyrus, right medial superior frontal gyrus, right middle frontal gyrus, and right supplementary motor area. In contrast, ONFH patients showed decreased ReHo in the left superior parietal gyrus and right inferior temporal gyrus. There were no significant differences in TBSS or probabilistic tractography. Conclusion These results indicate cerebral pain processing in ONFH patients. It is advantageous to use functional magnetic resonance imaging to better understand pain pathogenesis and identify new therapeutic targets in ONFH patients.

Abstract
Objective In this study, we aimed to elucidate the relationship between the duration from diagnosis to femoral head collapse and the collapse rate among patients with pre-collapse osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Methods In this retrospective, observational, multicenter study, we analyzed 268 patients diagnosed with ONFH and classified them using the Japanese Investigation Committee classification. The primary endpoint was duration from the time of diagnosis to femoral head collapse for each type of ONFH. Results The 12-, 24-, and 36-month collapse rates among participants were 0%, 0%, and 0% for type A, respectively; 0%, 2.0%, and 10.8% for type B, respectively; 25.5%, 40.8%, and 48.5% for type C-1, respectively; and 57.4%, 70.3%, and 76.7% for type C-2 ONFH, respectively. A comparison of unilateral and bilateral ONFH, using Kaplan–Meier survival curves demonstrated similar collapse rates. Conclusions The lowest collapse rate was observed for ONFH type A, followed by types B, C-1, and C-2. Additionally, a direct association was observed between the collapse rate and location of the osteonecrotic lesion on the weight-bearing surface.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a debilitating disease with major social and economic impacts. It frequently affects relatively young adults and has a predilection for rapid progression to femoral head collapse and end-stage hip arthritis. If not diagnosed and treated properly in the early stages, ONFH has devastating consequences and leads to mandatory total hip arthroplasty. The pathophysiology of non-traumatic ONFH is very complex and not fully understood. While multiple risk factors have been associated with secondary ONFH, there are still many cases in which a clear etiology cannot be established. Recognition of the prothrombotic state as part of the etiopathogeny of primary ONFH provides an opportunity for early medical intervention, with implications for both prophylaxis and therapy aimed at slowing or stopping the progression of the disease. Hereditary thrombophilia and hypofibrinolysis are associated with thrombotic occlusion of bone vessels. Anticoagulant treatment can change the natural course of the disease and improve patients' quality of life. The present work focused on highlighting the association between hereditary thrombophilia/hypofibrinolysis states and ONFH, emphasizing the importance of identifying this condition. We have also provided strong arguments to support the efficiency and safety of anticoagulant treatment in the early stages of the disease, encouraging etiological diagnosis and prompt therapeutic intervention. In the era of direct oral anticoagulants, new therapeutic options have become available, enabling better long-term compliance.

Abstract
Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a large-cell vasculitis, and is not usually associated with avascular necrosis (AVN). The objective of the study was to investigate any association between TA and AVN, including the possible pathogenic effect of glucocorticoid (GCs) use. The study design was retrospective and cross sectional. TA patients were enrolled in the study. Demographic variables, disease activity, treatments, physician global assessment, Indian Takayasu Clinical activity score 2010, and Kerr criteria were recorded. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify predictors of AVN. A total of 29 patients were assessed. AVN was observed in four (13.8%) patients with TA. Male gender and elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) were found to be significantly associated with AVN (p = 0.001 and p = 0.006, respectively). While type IIb TA was more common in patients with AVN (n = 2, 50%), type V was more likely in the absence of AVN (n = 13, 52%). Descending aorta and thoracic aorta were usually involved in patients with AVN (both, n = 3, 75%). In multivariate logistic regression, increased CRP levels were the only predictor for AVN (OR = 1.183, 95% Cl = 1.025-1.364, p = 0.021). No association was identified between AVN in TA patients and either duration or cumulative dose of GCs. The present study found that higher CRP levels and male gender were associated with AVN in patients with TA.

Abstract
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the 2-year outcomes from a clinical trial of recombinant human FGF-2 (rhFGF-2) for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Patients & methods: Sixty-four patients with nontraumatic, precollapse and large ONFHs were percutaneously administered with 800 μg rhFGF-2 contained in gelatin hydrogel. Setting the end point of radiological collapse, we analyzed the joint preservation period of the historical control. Changes in two validated clinical scores, bone regeneration and safety were evaluated. Results: Radiological joint preservation time was significantly higher in the rhFGF-2 group than in the control group. The ONFHs tended to improve to smaller ONFHs. The postoperative clinical scores significantly improved. Thirteen serious adverse events showed recovery. Conclusion: rhFGF-2 treatment increases joint preservation time with clinical efficacy, radiological bone regeneration and safety.

[PMID: 33808951 PMCID: PMC7999152 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph18062888] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2021] [Revised: 03/08/2021] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Although many studies have shown that hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy can significantly improve symptoms and quality of life of patients affected by femoral head necrosis, this therapy is not worldwide approved yet. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate its clinical effect. Relevant studies published before May 2020 were systematically searched using terms related to HBO and femoral head necrosis. Fixed and random-effects models were used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Subgroup analyses and publication bias tests were carried out to explore potential study heterogeneity and bias. Ten studies involving 353 controls and 368 HBO-treated cases were included, most of which were conducted on Asian population. The clinical effect in the HBO therapy group was 3.84 times higher than in the control group (OR = 3.84, 95% CI (2.10, 7.02), p < 0.00001). Subgroup analyses showed that the clinical effect of HBO therapy was statistically significant in the Asian subpopulation which represented most of the subjects (OR = 3.53, 95% CI (1.87, 6.64), p < 0.00001), but not in the non-Asian subpopulation, probably because of insufficient numerosity (OR = 7.41, 95% CI (0.73, 75.71), p = 0.09). The results of this meta-analysis suggest that patients with femoral head necrosis treated with HBO therapy can achieve a significant clinical improvement.

Abstract
To explore the novel magnetic resonance imaging techniques, IVIM-DWI and IDEAL-IQ in detecting bone marrow fat and microcirculation in steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SIONFH). In this prospective study, 49 patients (80 hips) with SIONFH taking glucocorticoids and 24 healthy volunteers (48 hips) were recruited and assessed by T1WI, T2WI/fs, IDEAL-IQ and IVIM-DWI. The affected hips, contralateral asymptomatic hips and normal hips, as well as normal, penumbra and necrotic areas in the affected hips, were classified and evaluated. Imaging results were compared with histologic bone sections obtained from SIONFH patients undergoing surgery. The fat fraction (FF) and perfusion fraction (f) differences between groups were analyzed using analysis of variance, the LSD t-test, Pearson correlation analysis and ROC curve analysis. Our results demonstrate that IDEAL-IQ (FF) and IVIM-DWI (f) enable the classification of SIONFH at different ARCO stages. The FF was positively associated with the progression of the disease (r = 0.72), in contrast to f (r = -0.17). The FF and f were significantly different among the necrotic, penumbra and normal areas, and they were negatively correlated with each other (r = -0.37). The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of IDEAL-IQ were 96.9% and 86.7%, and those of IVIM-DWI were 72.34% and 58.33%, respectively. The FF in contralateral asymptomatic hips was significantly higher than in normal hips, but no difference was found for f. IDEAL-IQ, and not IVIM-DWI, was identified to successfully detect bone marrow fat, which is beneficial to the diagnosis of the severity of SIONFH.

Porous tantalum rod implantation is associated with low survival rates in patients with type C2 osteonecrosis of the femoral head but has no effect on the clinical outcome of conversion total hip arthroplasty: a retrospective study with an average 8-year follow-up. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2020; 21:841. [PMID: 33308229 PMCID: PMC7733268 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-020-03860-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2019] [Accepted: 12/03/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Our study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes and survival rates following porous tantalum rod surgery (PTRS) and conversion total hip arthroplasty (THA) subsequent to failed PTRS. Methods A total of 38 subjects (40 hips) with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) were included in this retrospective study between January 2008 and December 2011. All subjects were evaluated before surgery by using the Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) classification system, the Japan Investigation Committee (JIC) classification and the Harris hip score (HHS). The endpoint of this study was set as final follow-up (including the survival time of PTRS and conversion THA). The rates of radiological progression were also evaluated. Patients who received conversion THA were further followed and compared to a control group of 58 patients with ONFH who underwent primary THA. Results The mean follow-up time was 120.7 ± 9.2 (range, 104–143) months, and the overall survival rate was 75% at 96 months (ARCO stage II: 81.5%; stage III: 38.5%; JIC type C1: 83.3%; C2: 30%). The HHS before surgery was 59 (55–61), in contrast to 94 (91–96) at 96 months follow-up (P < 0.01). HHS in stage III show a significant poorer result compared to stage II at 24 months. HHS in Type C2 group show no significant difference compared to HHS before surgery at 24 and 60 months follow up (P = 0.91, P = 0.30). Twelve hips requiring secondary THA were followed for 66.9 ± 31.7 months, and control hips that underwent primary THA was followed for 75.4 ± 14.9 months. The HHS in the conversion group was 89 (86–93) and that in the primary THA group was 92 (79–95, P = 0.09) at the 5-year follow-up. Conclusion In the mid-term follow-up, porous tantalum implants showed an encouraging survival rate in symptomatic patients in early stages (ARCO stage II) or with limited necrotic lesions (JIC type C1). In addition, our results did not demonstrated any difference between primary THA and conversion THA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Avascular necrosis (AVN) after pediatric femoral neck fracture (PFNF) showed poor prognosis, but its clinical and radiographic characteristics remained unclear. METHODS A systematic review and a retrospective study were performed to evaluate the clinical and radiographic characteristics of patients with AVN after PFNF. RESULTS A total of 686 patients with PFNF and 203 patients with AVN from 21 articles were analyzed. Ratliff's classification was used in 178 patients, with types I, II, and III AVN accounting for 58.4%, 25.3%, and 16.3%, respectively. Ratliff's assessment was used in 147 patients, of whom 88.4% had an unsatisfactory prognosis. In retrospective study, 115 patients with a mean age of 13.6 ± 2.0 years were included. The mean interval between AVN and PFNF was 13.7 ± 9.5 months. At the time of diagnosis, 59.1% cases were symptomatic and 65.2% progressed to collapsed stage. Fifty (43.5%), 61 (53.0%), and 4 patients (3.5%) were defined as types I, II, and III , respectively, via Ratliff's classification. Thirteen (11.3%), 40 (34.8%), and 62 patients (53.9%) showed types A/B, C1, and C2 disease, respectively, via the JIC classification. Multivariate analysis demonstrated a strong relation between collapsed stage and symptomatic cases (OR = 6.25, 95% CI = 2.39-16.36) and JIC classification (OR = 3.41, 95% CI = 1.62-7.17). CONCLUSION AVN after PFNF showed a tendency toward extensive necrotic lesions, presumably resulting in a rapid progression of femoral head collapse. And the symptoms and the JIC classification are other two risk factors of collapse progression.

Abstract
With current treatments for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the overall prognosis for survival is favorable. Increasing emphasis is placed on recognizing and managing the long-term consequences of ALL and its treatment, particularly involving osteonecrosis. Early osteonecrosis diagnosis and management may improve outcomes and is best accomplished through coordinated teams that may include hematologic oncologists, radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, physical therapists, and the patient and their family. Magnetic resonance imaging is the "gold standard" for diagnosis of early-stage and/or multifocal osteonecrosis. Treatments for osteonecrosis in ALL patients are risk stratified and may include observation, corticosteroid or chemotherapy adjustment, and pharmaceutical or surgical approaches.

Abstract
Objective: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a common condition that is encountered in clinical practice, and yet, little is known about its characteristics and manifestations in the brain. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to use resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) to investigate the spatial patterns of spontaneous brain activity in the brain of ONFH patients. Methods: The study included ONFH patients and healthy controls. The pattern of intrinsic brain activity was measured by examining the amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF) of blood oxygen level-dependent signals using rs-fMRI. Meanwhile, we also used Harris hip scores to evaluate the functional performance of ONFH patients and healthy controls. Result: Ten ONFH patients and 10 health controls were investigated. We found global ALFF differences between the two groups throughout the occipital, parietal, frontal, prefrontal, and temporal cortices. In the ONFH patients, altered brain activity was found in the brain regions in the sensorimotor network, pain-related network, and emotion and cognition network. The results of the correlation investigations also demonstrated that the regions with ALFF changes had significant correlations with the functional performance of the patients evaluated by Harris hip scores. Conclusions: Our study has revealed the abnormal pattern of brain activity in ONFH patients, and our findings could be used to aid in understanding the mechanisms behind the gait abnormality and intractable pain associated with ONFH at the central level.

What are the outcomes of core decompression without augmentation in patients with nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head? INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2020; 45:605-613. [PMID: 32886152 PMCID: PMC7892522 DOI: 10.1007/s00264-020-04790-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2020] [Accepted: 08/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Core decompression (CD) of the femoral head is performed to preserve the hip in avascular necrosis (AVN). The outcome following this procedure differs based on the medical centre and the technique. Also, the time to total hip replacement (THR) and the percentage of patients subsequently undergoing a THR are controversial. Methods A systematic review was performed following PRISMA guidelines. The search included CENTRAL, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, AMED and Web of Science Core Collection databases. Studies reporting the outcome of CD for AVN were assessed. Studies using additional implants, vascularized grafts or any type of augmentation were excluded. Quality assessment was performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist (JBI CAC) tool. Trial registration International prospective register of systematic reviews (PROSPERO) - CRD42018100596. Results A total of 49 studies describing 2540 hips were included. The mean weighted follow-up time was 75.1 months and the mean age at surgery was 39 years. Twenty-four of 37 studies reported improvement in all outcome scores, whilst 9/37 studies report only partial improvement post-operatively. Four studies (4/37) described poor clinical outcomes following intervention. Data was pooled from 20 studies, including 1134 hips with a weighted mean follow-up of 56 months. The percentage of hips undergoing THR averaged 38%. The time to THR had a weighted mean of 26 months after CD. Conclusion Pooled results from 1134 hips and of these nearly 80% with early stage of osteonecrosis, showed that approximately 38% of patients underwent a total hip replacement at an average of 26 months following core decompression without augmentation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thirty-day complications in osteonecrosis (ON) patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) are inconsistently reported. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate (1) the incidence of THA, (2) operative times, (2) length of stay, (3) reoperation rates, (4) readmission rates, and (5) complication rates, in the general vs ON THA populations. We also substratified and compared these cohorts based on ON-specific risk factors. METHODS Using the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database, Current Procedural Terminology code 27130, International Classification of Disease, Ninth Edition code 733.42, and a 1:1 propensity score match, a total of 8344 matched ON and non-ON THA patients were identified. ON patients were also substratified based on key risk factors. The above variables were compared between the matched ON and non-ON cohorts as well as for patients with each risk factor using Pearson's chi-square and Student t-tests. RESULTS The proportion of THAs performed on ON patients decreased by 35% from 2008 to 2015. Mean operative times were constant between the ON and non-ON patients (102 minutes). ON patients had shorter mean length of stay (3.1 vs 3.4 days, P = .002). Of the 17 different 30-day complications evaluated, superficial surgical site infection (1.2% vs 0.6%, P = .004), pneumonia (0.8% vs 0.2%, P = .001), transfusion (15.6% vs 5.4%, P < .001), and readmission (5.1% vs 2.3%, P = .012) were higher among ON patients. ON patients with a history of corticosteroid use, higher American Society of Anesthesiologists score, and smoking were also found to have higher complication rates compared to non-ON patients with the same risk factors. CONCLUSION This is one of the first studies to compare postoperative THA outcomes between matched ON vs non-ON patients, while also taking into consideration specific risk factors between the cohorts.

Abstract
The authors prospectively assessed long-term anticoagulation outcomes (≥3 years) for 9 patients meeting 4 inclusion criteria: pretreatment Ficat stage I or II primary hip osteonecrosis (ON), factor V Leiden or prothrombin G20210A heterozygosity, no contraindication to anticoagulation, and 90-day participation in an initial enoxaparin 60 mg/d protocol. The primary endpoint was prevention of hip collapse (Ficat stage III or IV). The secondary endpoint was pain relief. After 90 days of enoxaparin 60 mg/d, anticoagulation was continued for 8 patients: 4 receiving warfarin (international normalized ratio targeted to 2 to 2.5; 11.5, 13, 14.5, and 21 years), 1 receiving enoxaparin 120 mg/d (11.5 years), and 3 receiving novel oral anticoagulants (5, 6, and 8 years). Radiographs were obtained before treatment; at 3 to 4, 6 to 8, and 12 to 14 months; and then annually. By selection, 8 patients had factor V Leiden heterozygosity and 1 had prothrombin G202010A heterozygosity. Of their 13 hips (Ficat I or II at entry), 12 remained Ficat I or II after 12±5 years (range, 5.5-21 years) of continuous anticoagulation and follow-up; 1 hip radiographically normalized. None of the 13 hips progressed to collapse (Ficat III or IV). Six patients became symptom free after the first 3 months of receiving enoxaparin, 1 after 6 months of anticoagulation, and 1 after 10 months of anticoagulation; all 8 patients remained symptom free with anticoagulation. Anticoagulation for primary hip ON before hip collapse in patients with familial thrombophilia may change the natural history of ON because most untreated patients with ON have joint collapse and total joint replacement within 2 years of original symptoms.

Abstract
Aims Earlier studies dealing with trends in the management of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) identified an increasing rate of total hip arthroplasties (THAs) and a decreasing rate of joint-preserving procedures between 1992 and 2008. In an effort to assess new trends in the management of this condition, this study evaluated the annual trends of joint-preserving versus arthroplasties for patients aged < or > 50 years old, and the incidence of specific operative management techniques. Methods A total of 219,371 patients with ONFH were identified from a nationwide database between 1 January 2009 and 31 December 2015. The mean age was 54 years (18 to 90) and 105,298 (48%) were female. The diagnosis was made using International Classification of Disease, Ninth revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) and Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) procedure codes. The percentage of patients managed using each procedure during each year was calculated and compared between years. The trends in the use of the types of procedure were also evaluated. Results The rate of joint-preserving procedures was significantly higher in patients aged < 50 years compared with those aged > 50 years (4.93% vs 1.52%; p < 0.001). For the overall cohort, rates of arthroplasty were far greater than those for joint-preserving procedures. THA was the most commonly performed procedure (291,114; 94.03%), while osteotomy (3,598; 1.16%), partial arthroplasty (9,171; 2.96%), core decompression (1,200; 0.39%), and bone graft (3,026; 0.98%) were performed markedly less frequently. The annual percentage of patients managed using a THA (93.56% to 89.52%; p < 0.001), resurfacing (1.22% to 0.19%; p < 0.001), and osteotomy (1.31% to 1.05%; p < 0.001) also decreased during the study period. Conclusion We found that patients with ONFH have been most commonly managed with non-joint-preserving procedures. Our findings provide valuable insight into the current management of this condition and should increase efforts being made to save the hip joint.

Abstract
Background Femoral head collapse is the key to the progress of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), but the causes of collapse are not completely clear. The better understanding of the progress of femoral head collapse will guide the treatment strategy for ONFH patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical influence of necrosis area on the collapse of the femoral head by finite element analysis. Methods CT and MRI data from the hip joint of a healthy volunteer were collected to establish a finite element (FE) model of a normal hip. Subsequently, five categories of osteonecrosis FE models were established by using the normal model and computer software according to China-Japan Friendship Hospital (CJFH) classification for ONFH. The CJFH system includes five types based on the size and location of necrosis lesions in the femoral head (type M, C, L1, L2, and L3) and the stage of ONFH. The collapse indices of each model were analyzed by FE method, including the displacement, peak von Mises stress and stress index of the simulated necrotic area as well as the lateral pillar contact area of the femoral head to acetabular. Results (1) The displacement increments in the simulated necrotic areas of type M, C, L1, L2, and L3 models were 3.75 μm, 8.24 μm, 8.47 μm, 18.42 μm, and 20.44 μm respectively; the peak von Mises stress decrements were 1.50 MPa, 3.74 MPa, 3.73 MPa, 4.91 MPa, and 4.92 MPa respectively; and the stress indices were 0.04, 0.08, 0.08, 0.27, and 0.27 respectively. (2) The displacement increments in the lateral pillar contact areas of five type models were significantly different (P < 0.001) and increased in sequence as follows: 1.93 ± 0.15 μm, 5.74 ± 0.92 μm, 5.84 ± 1.42 μm, 14.50 ± 3.00 μm, and 16.43 ± 3.05 μm. The peak von Mises stress decrements were also significantly different (P < 0.001) and increased in sequence as follows: 0.52 ± 0.30 MPa, 0.55 ± 0.12 MPa, 0.67 ± 0.33 MPa, 4.17 ± 0.59 MPa, and 4.19 ± 0.60 MPa. (3) The collapse indices including the displacement increments and peak von Mises stress decrements of type L2 and L3 models were markedly higher than those of type M, C, and L1 models (P < 0.001). Conclusions The collapse indices of the femoral heads of type L2 and L3 FE models were significantly higher than those of type M, C, and L1. Different areas of necrosis result in varied impact on the femoral head collapse.

Abstract
PURPOSE Currently, knowledge regarding the intra-articular pathology and its relationship to outcomes after joint-preserving surgery in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is lacking. The purposes were to evaluate the intra-articular pathology and its relationship with outcomes of joint-preserving surgery in ONFH. METHODS We reviewed 41 hips with ONFH in 41 patients (27 women; mean age, 34.9 years old) who underwent intertrochanteric curved varus osteotomy. Radiographic evaluations were based on pre-operative imaging studies, including radiographs, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Intra-articular pathology was evaluated by arthroscopic inspection of the femoral head, labrum, and acetabular cartilage during surgery. In addition, we performed radiographic measurements of the hip, including the collapse of the femoral head and minimal joint space width at three years post-operatively and at final follow-up. RESULTS Arthroscopy revealed damage to the acetabular cartilage and labrum in 22 (54%) and 13 patients (32%), respectively. However, these lesions could be detected on imaging in only 13 (32%) and ten patients (24%), respectively. The change in joint space width after surgery was significantly higher in patients with cartilage degeneration and labral injury (P = 0.02, P = 0.02). Logistic regression analysis for subsequent progression of osteoarthritis showed an association with degenerative changes of articular cartilage and the labral tear as independent predictors (P = 0.001, P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Our data demonstrate the presence of labral and acetabular cartilage lesions in ONFH patients, while images do not reveal the full extent of the tissue damage. These intra-articular pathologies can be associated with the outcomes after joint-preserving surgery.

The 2019 Revised Version of Association Research Circulation Osseous Staging System of Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head. J Arthroplasty 2020; 35:933-940.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) presents the 2019 revised staging system of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) based on the 1994 ARCO classification. METHODS In October 2018, ARCO established a task force to revise the staging system of ONFH. The task force involved 29 experts who used a web-based survey for international collaboration. Content validity ratios for each answer were calculated to identify the levels of agreement. For the rating queries, a consensus was defined when more than 70% of the panel members scored a 4 or 5 rating on a 5-point scale. RESULTS Response rates were 93.1%-100%, and through the 4-round Delphi study, the 1994 ARCO classification for ONFH was successfully revised. The final consensus resulted in the following 4-staged system: stage I-X-ray is normal, but either magnetic resonance imaging or bone scan is positive; stage II-X-ray is abnormal (subtle signs of osteosclerosis, focal osteoporosis, or cystic change in the femoral head) but without any evidence of subchondral fracture, fracture in the necrotic portion, or flattening of the femoral head; stage III-fracture in the subchondral or necrotic zone as seen on X-ray or computed tomography scans. This stage is further divided into stage IIIA (early, femoral head depression ≤2 mm) and stage IIIB (late, femoral head depression >2 mm); and stage IV-X-ray evidence of osteoarthritis with accompanying joint space narrowing, acetabular changes, and/or joint destruction. This revised staging system does not incorporate the previous subclassification or quantitation parameters, but the panels agreed on the future development of a separate grading system for predicting disease progression. CONCLUSION A staging system has been developed to revise the 1994 ARCO classification for ONFH by an expert panel-based Delphi survey. ARCO approved and recommends this revised system as a universal staging of ONFH.

Abstract
Background Hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) may be a suitable option for treating osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). However, concerns regarding the extent of osteonecrosis, amount of defect under the prosthesis, and implant-related complications remain. This study aimed to report implant-specific outcomes and risk factors for failure of HRA in ONFH. Methods A total of 202 HRAs (166 patients) performed by a single surgeon were investigated. The stage, size, and location of ONFH were evaluated using preoperative radiographs and magnetic resonance images. Clinical, radiographic results, and serum metal concentrations of articular surface replacement (ASR) and non-ASR devices were compared. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the contributors of failures. The mean follow-up duration was 10.6 years. Results Twenty-six hips (12.9%) were operated with Birmingham Hip Resurfacing (BHR), 99 (49.0%) with ASR, and 77 (38.1%) with Conserve Plus. The mean Harris Hip Score improved from 52.1 to 93.2 at the final follow-up (P < 0.001). Revision-free survivorships of non-ASR and ASR implants were 99.0% and 82.4%, respectively (P < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, the use of ASR prosthesis, greater combined necrotic angle, and smaller head size were associated with revision surgery. A large combined necrotic angle was the only independent risk factor for mechanical failure at the femoral side (P = 0.029). Conclusion HRA for ONFH using BHR and Conserve Plus implants demonstrated favourable clinical outcomes with high revision-free survival rates at 10 years. However, care should be taken for large necrotic lesions that can lead to femoral neck fracture or aseptic femoral loosening. The translational potential of this article This study suggests HRA performed for appropriately selected patients with ONFH can show excellent long-term clinical results. Therefore, HRA should remain as one of the treatment options for ONFH, and further development of HRA implants should be continued.
