Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Versus Core Decompression Augmented With Bone Substitute in Pre Collapse of Avascular Necrosis of Femoral Head

Start date: September 13, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Introduction: osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a potentially crippling disorder, which mainly affects the young adults. Core decompression has been used for the treatment of the osteonecrosis of the femur head since was published by Ficat and albert, and by HUNGERFORD and Lennox. hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a suggestive joint preserving treatment for symptomatic prolapse stage of osteonecrosis of the femur head. Aims and objectives: to compare the clinical (functional) outcome of core decompression versus hyperbaric oxygen therapy in pre collapse stages of idiopathic avascular necrosis of the femur head. Material and methods: Mixed Retrospective and prospective study for all case of pre collapse of avascular necrosis of femoral head(AVNHF) underwent either hyperbaric oxygen therapy or Core decompression augmented with bone substitute in HAMAD General Hospital Anticipated outcome: Hyperbaric oxygen treatment associated with better outcomes at preserving the joint and associated with less complications than surgery
