Abstract Objectives To evaluate the necessity of pathologic examination for confirming the diagnosis of avascular necrosis (AVN). Methods We retrospectively reviewed consecutive nonfractured total hip arthroplasty cases (n = 1,722), comparing operative diagnoses and radiologic data with final histologic diagnoses, focusing specifically on AVN. Results Among 199 histologically confirmed cases of AVN, 62 (31%) had a preoperative diagnosis of osteoarthritis/degenerative joint disease (OA/DJD); 58 of the latter patients had radiology reports, but only two (3%) documented AVN. Patients with AVN preoperatively diagnosed as OA/DJD were significantly older (mean, 65 years) than patients with AVN correctly diagnosed clinically (mean, 52 years; P < .00001). Among 163 cases with a preoperative diagnosis of AVN, 26 (16%) were confirmed as OA/DJD; the radiology report incorrectly diagnosed AVN in 17 (65%) patients. These latter patients also were significantly older (mean, 60 years) than patients with AVN correctly diagnosed clinically (P = .0008). Patients with a preoperative clinical and/or radiologic diagnosis of AVN were more likely to be younger and have known AVN risk factors. Conclusions Accurate and reliable diagnosis of AVN requires pathologic examination, especially among older patients without known risk factors. Prompt diagnosis may lead to behavioral changes in affected patients that reduce the risk of subsequent lesions.

Uncemented Total Hip Replacement

<p class="abstract"><strong>Background: </strong>Normal hip joint is subjected to many stresses during daily activities performed by an individual. Since it is one of the major weight bearing joints of the body, its normal function is necessary for daily activities. Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head is one of the common causes of painful hip in a young adult. Core decompression, fibular sturt graft can be considered in early stages, total hip arthroplasty in later stages of AVN of femoral head.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong> This is a retrospective study of 30 patients following uncemented total hip replacement, who were operated between August 2017 and March 2020 at MNR medical college and hospital, Sangareddy. They were followed up for a minimum period of 1 year and evaluated using Harris hip scoring system. Harris hip score is designed specifically for measuring functional outcomes in hip arthroplasty.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Results: </strong>There was a significant improvement in function as measured with the Harris hip score. The overall preoperative Harris hip score was 43, which remarkably improved to 89 postoperatively. The results observed, showed that all patients had good to excellent results, (Harris hip score ≥0) thus showing a good degree of pain relief, improvement in function and range of motion.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Although the use of total hip arthroplasty in young patients will more likely necessitate future revision surgery, the consistent relief of pain and good functional results have made this procedure an attractive treatment choice for the debilitating arthritis resulting from osteonecrosis of the femoral head.  </p>
