Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a devastating and complicated disease with an unclear etiology. Femoral head-preserving surgeries have been devoted to delaying and hindering the collapse of the femoral head since their introduction in the last century. However, the isolated femoral head-preserving surgeries cannot prevent the natural progression of ONFH, and the combination of autogenous or allogeneic bone grafting often leads to many undesired complications. To tackle this dilemma, bone tissue engineering has been widely developed to compensate for the deficiencies of these surgeries. During the last decades, great progress has been made in ingenious bone tissue engineering for ONFH treatment. Herein, we comprehensively summarize the state-of-the-art progress made in bone tissue engineering for ONFH treatment. The definition, classification, etiology, diagnosis, and current treatments of ONFH are first described. Then, the recent progress in the development of various bone-repairing biomaterials, including bioceramics, natural polymers, synthetic polymers, and metals, for treating ONFH is presented. Thereafter, regenerative therapies for ONFH treatment are also discussed. Finally, we give some personal insights on the current challenges of these therapeutic strategies in the clinic and the future development of bone tissue engineering for ONFH treatment.

Clinical Outcome of Surgical Hip Dislocation Combined with Impacting Bone Grafts and Implanting Iliac Bone Flaps in the Treatment of Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head: A Mid-term Retrospective Study. Orthop Surg 2022; 14:1115-1125.

Abstract
Objective To report the medium‐term outcomes of surgical hip dislocation (SHD) combined with impacting bone grafts and implanting iliac bone flaps in the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) and to define the indications for this treatment. Methods This was a single‐center retrospective study. In total, 64 patients (70 hips) with ONFH treated from January 2014 to December 2017 were included in this study. There were 51 males and 13 females aged 18–55 years with an average age of 32 years. All patients underwent surgery for SHD combined with impacting bone grafts and implanting iliac bone flaps. Preoperative and postoperative clinical outcomes were assessed. The clinical outcome was assessed using the Harris hip score (HHS) and the conversion rate of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors affecting the clinical outcome. Kaplan–Meier (K‐M) analysis was applied to calculate the survival rate of the femoral head. Results At the last follow‐up (60 ± 15.08 months), the HHS was excellent for 41 hips, good for 17 hips, fair for three hips, and poor for nine hips. All nine hips with poor HHS underwent THA, including five in the first 2 years following the index surgery and four between three and 5 years. The conversion rate of total hip arthroplasty was 12.86%. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that the duration of hip pain and JIC classification type were significantly associated with clinical outcomes. Elderly age and advanced ONFH stage tended to lead to worse surgical outcomes. The overall survival rate of JIC classification type C1 and duration of pain ≤6 months was 98.1% and 97.8% at 72 months, respectively, as estimated by the Kaplan–Meier method. Conclusion Surgical hip dislocation combined with impacting bone grafts and implanting iliac bone flaps in the treatment of ONFH had a good mid‐term clinical outcome, especially for patients with retention of the lateral column of the femoral head and hip pain less than 1 year.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Avascular necrosis of femoral head (AVN) is 1 of the main factors causing disability in young adults. Hip prosthesis can be considered an effective treatment of the painful symptoms but it is a major surgical intervention for this type of population. Thus, a large space should be left to therapeutic alternatives such as regenerative medicine.This retrospective study evaluates 52 AVN treated by core decompression, bone chips allograft, fibrin platelet-rich plasma (PRF) and concentrated autologous mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). METHODS The AVN was diagnosed using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and graded according to ARCO classification: a patient was classified stage 1 (21 patients), stage 3 (26 patients), and 4 patients were classified as stage 4. We evaluated patients with functional scores (Harris Hip Score) and radiological analysis at 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after the procedure. Patients requiring prosthetic replacement of the joint were included; in these cases, follow-up was interrupted at the time of the joint replacement procedure. RESULTS Our statistical analysis showed differences between survived and failed treatments, in terms of patient profile and ARCO radiological classification.The best result occurred in patients with ARCO grades 1 and 2, while the more advanced grades showed a high failure rate. It is interesting to note that ARCO quantification, conceived as the joint surface involved in the necrosis, has a negative influence on the outcome of the procedure. Indeed, patients affected by ARCO 3a, where necrosis involved a small portion of the femoral epiphysis and the collapse of the articular surface was limited to 2 mm, showed results similar to those obtained in patients with ARCO 1 and 2. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, compared with the alternative technique of decompression, our data suggest that post-collapse cases with a small area of necrosis and the use of bone grafts may show better results compared to those of the literature.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to report the medium-term outcomes of impaction bone allograft and fibular grafting for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) and to define the optimal indications. METHODS A total of 67 patients (77 hips) with ONFH were enrolled in a single centre retrospective review. Success of the procedure was assessed using the Harris Hip Score (HHS) and rate of revision to total hip arthroplasty (THA). Risk factors were studied, including age, aetiology, duration of hip pain, as well as two classification systems (Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) and Japanese Investigation Committee (JIC) systems). RESULTS After a mean follow-up period of 8.61 years (SD 1.45), 81.3% (52/64) of enrolled cases had a good or excellent HHS at latest follow-up (declining to 76.0% (38/50) for those with more than eight years of follow-up). Overall survival was 92.1% at eight years' follow-up (95% CI 83.2% to 96.4%). A total of 12 hips (19.0%) failed (reoperation or HHS < 70 points) at final follow-up. Rate of success was adversely affected by increasing age, duration of pain, and more severe disease as measured using the ARCO and JIC classifications, but not by aetiology of the ONFH. CONCLUSION We report favourable medium-term results of this procedure. Best outcomes can be expected in patients matching the following indications: younger than 40 years; less 12-month hip pain before surgery; femoral head collapse being less than 2 mm; and integrated lateral wall of femoral head.

Abstract
Background To compare the mid-long-term clinical and radiological outcomes between a combination of cortico-cancellous iliac bone graft with vascularized greater trochanter flap (Group A) and isolate iliac bone graft (Group B) in the treatment of Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head (ONFH). Methods From January 2006 to December 2012, 123 patients (135 hips) who underwent abovementioned hip-preserving surgeries were included for analysis. Clinical outcomes were assessed based on Harris Hip Score (HHS) System and The Western Ontario and McMaster University Index (WOMAC) scores between the preoperative and the last follow-up. A series of postoperative X-rays were compared to preoperative images for radiological evaluation. Results The HHS in Group A and B were enhanced from 50.57 ± 3.39 to 87.60 ± 4.15 and from 50.24 ± 3.30 to 85.18 ± 6.45, respectively, which both showed significance between preoperative and postoperative latest follow-up (p < 0.001). Group A revealed better improvement in terms of HHS (p = 0.017). The WOMAC total, postoperative stiffness, difficulty subscale scores in Group A showed better outcomes when compared to Group B (p < 0.01), while pain improvement between these two groups revealed no significance (p = 0.402). Besides, Group A suggested better necrotic region repair (p = 0.020), but no femoral head collapse difference in terms of Association Research Circulation Osseous classification change was found (p > 0.05). Conclusions A combination of cortico-cancellous iliac bone graft and concurrent vascularized greater trochanter flap with the lateral femoral circumflex transverse branch has been proved can obtain better functional and radiological results than isolate iliac bone grafting, which is attributed to blood reconstruction of the femoral head.

Abstract
Background Treatment for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) in young individuals remains controversial. We developed a lantern-shaped screw, which was designed to provide mechanical support for the femoral head to prevent its collapse, for the treatment of ONFH. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of the lantern-shaped screw loaded with autologous bone for the treatment of pre-collapse stages of ONFH. Methods Thirty-two patients were randomly divided into two groups: the lantern-shaped screw group (core decompression and lantern-shaped screw loaded with autogenous bone) and the control group (core decompression and autogenous bone graft). During 36 months follow-up after surgery, treatment results in patients were assessed by X-ray and computed tomography (CT) scanning as well as functional recovery Harris hip score (HHS). Results Successful clinical results were achieved in 15 of 16 hips (94%) in the lantern-shaped screw group compared with 10 of 16 hips (63%) in the control group (p = 0.0325). Successful radiological results were achieved in 14 of 16 hips (88%) in the lantern-shaped screw group compared with 8 of 16 hips (50%) in the control group (P = 0.0221). Conclusion The lantern-shaped screw loaded with autologous bone for the treatment of pre-collapse stages of ONFH is effective and results in preventing progression of ONFH and reducing the risk of femoral head collapse. Trial registration The trial registration number: ChiCTR-TRC-13004078 (retrospectively registered at 2013-11-28).

Abstract
PURPOSE Core decompression (CD) may be effective when performed during the early stages of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Tantalum may be added as a rod that would allow putting some mechanical constraints on the femoral head. We aimed to estimate the rate of total hip arthroplasty after CD and insertion of a tantalum rod during early stages of OFNH. METHODS We searched systematically Medline via PubMed and the Cochrane Library. Our primary endpoint was the rate of patients undergoing a total hip arthroplasty after CD and insertion of a tantalum rod. Secondary endpoints were the delay between the initial surgery and the arthroplasty, the functional improvement, and the rate of complications. RESULTS We included seven studies reporting the results of 232 patients (297 hips) that were operated on by CD and insertion of a tantalum rod. At a mean follow-up of 26.97 months, 24.63% of the included hips underwent a hip arthroplasty (6-56%, SD = 17.34%). The mean delay between the initial surgery and the arthroplasty was 14.94 months (10.20-22.90; SD = 5.25), the mean improvement of Harris Hip Score was 27.66 (20.20-36.90; SD = 6.48), and the mean rate of femoral fracture was 2.43% (0-13%, SD = 4.89%). CONCLUSION CD and insertion of a tantalum rod may represent a solution in order to improve the mechanical support and to give a rate of conversion in arthroplasty that is acceptable.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis, although commonly occurring in the hip, can also affect the leg and foot. In the foot, it most commonly occurs in the talus. The incidence of osteonecrosis occurring in the tibia is relatively rare. We report a case of a woman who presented to our clinic with ankle pain that was idiopathic in nature. Subsequent magnetic resonance imaging showed findings consistent with osteonecrosis of the bilateral distal tibias and several other lesions located in the shoulder, hip, and calcaneus. The present report also serves as a review of both etiology and treatment of osteonecrosis as it relates to the lower extremity.

Abstract
This was a case of hip osteonecrosis with onset during intravenous corticosteroid therapy for Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome. After seven weeks, the patient was diagnosed at extremely early stage of osteonecrosis of the femoral head. She was treated with joint-preserving regenerative therapy using growth factor.
Introduction Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a corticosteroid-associated disease that mostly cause femoral head collapse and gait disturbance. At the final stage of ONFH, the most reliable treatment is total hip arthroplasty even in young patients. Although magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is useful for early diagnosis, initial stages are asymptomatic, with pain intensifying after femoral head collapse. Presentation of case A 34-year-old female patient with rapid bilateral loss of vision was diagnosed Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome. She immediately received corticosteroid pulse therapy. While undergoing therapy, she complained of groin pain. The initial MRI of the hip did not show abnormal findings. As the right proximal thigh pain progressed, an MRI of the lumbar spine was performed. No compression of the spinal cord was observed, and right ONFH was suspected on the basis of a characteristic band image. The patient was diagnosed with Stage 1 ONFH 7 weeks after the initial symptoms. She was successfully treated by joint-preserving regenerative therapy using growth factor. After surgery, the patient completely recovered from pain. Discussion The occurrence of hip pain while receiving corticosteroid therapy was very rare. The present case was considered a result of reduction of the blood supply to the femoral head induced by hip pain that progressed to ONFH for unknown reasons. Conclusion It is difficult to identify cases of corticosteroid-associated ONFH even in patients with potential risk. In this case, we could identify the patient extremely early based on the ONFH image and could provide joint-preserving regenerative therapy.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the benefits of combination treatment with mechanical support and targeted intra-arterial infusion of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) mobilized by granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) via the medial circumflex femoral artery on the progression of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Fifty-five patients (89 hips) with early and intermediate stage ONFH were recruited and randomly assigned to combination treatment or mechanical support treatment (control group). All hips received mechanical support treatment (porous tantalum rod implantation). Then, hips in the combination treatment group were performed targeted intra-arterial infusion of PBSCs. At each follow-up, Harris hip score (HHS) and Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) classification were used to evaluate the symptoms and progression of osteonecrosis. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) was assessed as an endpoint at each follow-up. At 36 months, 9 of the 41 hips (21.95%) in the control group progressed to clinical failure and underwent THA whereas only 3 of the 48 hips (6.25%) in the combination treatment group required THA (p = 0.031). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed a significant difference in the survival time between the two groups (log-rank test; p = 0.025). Compared to the control group, combination treatment significantly improved the HHS at 36 months (p = 0.003). At the final follow-up examination, radiological progression was noted in 13 of 41 hips (31.71%) for the control group, but in only 4 of 48 hips (8.33%) for the combination treatment group (p = 0.005). The overall collapse rates were 15.15% (5/33 hips) and 8.11% (3/37 hips) in the control and combination treatment groups, respectively. Targeted intra-arterial infusion of PBSCs is capable of enhancing the efficacy of biomechanical support in the treatment of ONFH. This clinical trial confirmed that the combination treatment might be a safe and feasible choice for the treatment of early or intermediate stages of ONFH.

Abstract
Avascular necrosis (AVN) after internal fixation of intracapsular hip fractures is a progressive multifactorial disease that ultimately results in local ischemia with ensuing osteocyte necrosis and structural compromise. This disease can cause significant clinical morbidity and affects patients of any age, including young and active patients. Effective treatment of this condition among young adults is challenging due to their high functional demands. The aim of managing AVN is to relieve pain, preserve range of movement and improve function. Treatment methods vary depending on the stage of the disease and can be broadly categorised into two options, hip preserving surgery and hip arthroplasty. Although, hip preserving techniques are attractive in the young adult, they may alter the morphology of the proximal femur and make subsequent arthroplasty more challenging. Conversely, arthroplasty in the young adult may require repeat revision procedures throughout the patient's life. Current evidence suggests that modifications of prevailing treatments, in addition to new technologies, have led to the development of management strategies that may be able to alter the course of femoral head osteonecrosis. This review aims to summarise the options available for treatment of AVN in the young adult and review the clinical results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to contrast the collapse values of the postoperative weight-bearing areas of different tantalum rod implant positions, fibula implantation, and core decompression model and to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of tantalum rod implantation in different ranges of osteonecrosis in comparison with other methods. MATERIAL AND METHODS The 3D finite element method was used to establish the 3D finite element model of normal upper femur, 3D finite element model after tantalum rod implantation into different positions of the upper femur in different osteonecrosis ranges, and other 3D finite element models for simulating fibula implant and core decompression. RESULTS The collapse values in the weight-bearing area of the femoral head of the tantalum rod implant model inside the osteonecrosis area, implant model in the middle of the osteonecrosis area, fibula implant model, and shortening implant model exhibited no statistically significant differences (p>0.05) when the osteonecrosis range was small (60°). The stress values on the artificial bone surface for the tantalum rod implant model inside the osteonecrosis area and the shortening implant model exhibited statistical significance (p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Tantalum rod implantation into the osteonecrosis area can reduce the collapse values in the weight-bearing area when osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) was in a certain range, thereby obtaining better clinical effects. When ONFH was in a large range (120°), the tantalum rod implantation inside the osteonecrosis area, shortening implant or fibula implant can reduce the collapse values of the femoral head, as assessed by other methods.

Abstract
This preliminary study evaluates a combination of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-7 and non-vascularised autologous fibular grafting (AFG) for the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head. BMP-7/AFG combination was applied in seven pre-collapse femoral heads (five Steinberg stage II, two stage III) in six patients. Pre- and post-operative evaluation included clinical (Harris hip score (HHS), visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain) and radiological assessment (radiographs, quantitative CT) at a mean follow-up of 4 years (2 to 5.5). A marked improvement of function (mean HHS increase of 49.2) and decrease of pain level (mean VAS decrease of 5) as well as retention of the sphericity of the femoral head was noted in five hips at the latest follow-up, while signs of consolidation were apparent from the third post-operative month. One patient (two hips) required bilateral total hip replacement at one year post-operatively. In the series as a whole, quantitative-CT evaluation revealed similar densities between affected and normal bone. Heterotopic ossification was observed in four hips, without compromise of the clinical outcome. In this limited series AFG/BMP-7 combination proved a safe and effective method for the treatment of femoral head osteonecrosis, leading to early consolidation of the AFG and preventing collapse in five of seven hips, while the operative time and post-operative rehabilitation period were much shorter compared with free vascularised fibular grafts.

Abstract
There still is no consensus on the treatment of choice in revision knee arthroplasty associated with severe femoral and/or tibial bone loss. A total of 44 patients underwent revision knee arthroplasty procedures using porous tantalum cones (TM cones) to reconstruct tibial and/or femoral bone defects. At latest follow up after 37 months (32-48), 38 patients remained in the study. Tibial and femoral bone loss was categorized according to the AORI-Classification. The average preoperative KSS improved from 34 (range, 6-90) to 63 points (range, 7-90 points). The VAS improved from 7.5 to 4.8. Two patients required a re-revision due to aseptic loosening. There was no correlation between the different types of knee prosthesis implanted. Our study shows favourable clinical and radiological outcomes using TM cones in managing significant bone loss in revision total knee surgery.

Abstract
Background To investigate the efficacy of the sole core decompression surgery for the treatment of steroid-induced femoral head osteonecrosis. Methods The model was established by administration of steroids in combination with horse serum. The rabbits with bilateral femoral head osteonecrosis were randomly selected to do the one side of core decompression. The other side was used as the sham. Quantitative RT-PCR and western blot techniques were used to measure the local expression of BMP-2 and PPAR-γ. Bone tissues from control and operation groups were histologically analyzed by H&E staining. The comparisons of the local expression of BMP-2 and PPAR-γ and the bone regeneration were further analyzed between different groups at each time point. Results The expression of BMP-2 in the osteonecrosis femoral head with or without decompression was significantly lower than that in normal animals. BMP-2 expression both showed the decreasing trend with the increased post-operation time. No significant difference of BMP-2 expression occurred between femoral head osteonecrosis with and without decompression. The PPAR-γ expression in the femoral head osteonecrosis with and without core decompression both was significantly higher than that in control. Its expression pattern showed a significantly increased trend with increased the post-operation time. However, there was no significant difference of PPAR-γ expression between the femoral head osteonecrosis with and without decompression at each time point. Histopathological analysis revealed that new trabecular bone and a large number of osteoblasts were observed in the steroid-induced femoral head osteonecrosis with lateral decompression at 8 weeks after surgery, but there still existed trabecular bone fractures and bone necrosis. Conclusions Although decompression takes partial effect in promoting bone regeneration in the early treatment of femoral head osteonecrosis, such an effect does not significantly improve or reverse the pathological changes of femoral head necrosis. Thus, the long-term effect of core decompression in the treatment of steroid-induced femoral head osteonecrosis is not satisfactory.
