Objective: To detect the blood perfusion of the necrotic area and the femoral head and neck junction in the patients diagnosed as osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH) with laser doppler flowmetry (LDF).
Methods: From 2007 to 2008, 50 patients with ONFH 82 hips were performed core decompression and autologous stem cells transplantation. Group A was for ARCO stage II 46 hips (IIA 6 hips, IIB 22 hips, IIC 18 hips), and Group B was for stage III 36 hips (IIIA 20 hips, IIIB 10 hips, IIIC 6 hips). Blood perfusion of necrotic area and femoral head and neck junction with LDP were detected during the operation. Statistical analysis was made.
Results: In Group A, the perfusion volume of necrotic area was (30.2 +/- 3.0) PU, and the perfusion volume of femoral head and neck junction was (103.4 +/- 4.4) PU. In Group B, the perfusion volume of necrotic area was (30.6 +/- 2.8) PU, and the perfusion volume of femoral head and neck junction was (103.4 +/- 3.9) PU. In Group A and Group B, the perfusion volume of necrotic area was lower than that of femoral head and neck junction, and the difference was significant (P < 0.01).
Conclusions: LDF can effectively detect that the perfusion volume of ONFH decreased, which provides a theoretical basis in order to further study the pathogenesis of ONFH. Meanwhile, there is application value of LDF on the study of ONFH.

Osteoporosis is a systemic metabolic disease that impairs bone remodeling by favoring osteoclastic resorption over osteoblastic formation. Nanotechnology-based therapeutic strategies focus on the delivery of drug molecules to either decrease bone resorption or increase bone formation rather than regulating the entire bone remodeling process, and osteoporosis interventions suffer from this limitation. Here, we present a multifunctional nanoparticle based on metal-phenolic networks (MPNs) for the treatment of systemic osteoporosis by regulating both osteoclasts and osteoblasts.

Background Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head is a serious complication after surgical treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). The main objective of this study is to identify the incidence of AVN and to define AVN risk factors. The study also aims to identify the effects of AVN and other factors on final clinical and radiological outcomes.

Purpose: The dynamic alignment of the lumbar spine, pelvis and femur is increasingly studied in hip preservation surgery. However, the interaction between lumbopelvic alignment, acetabular and femoral morphology and its influence on patients' preoperative symptom burden remains poorly understood. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether lumbopelvic malalignment affects osseous hip morphology and exacerbates preoperative patient-reported joint functionality in patients undergoing periacetabular osteotomy (PAO).

Background: The location and size of necrotic lesions are important factors for collapse, The preserved angles (PAs) are divided into anterior preserved angle (APA) and lateral preserved angle (LPA), which could accurately measure the location of necrosis lesion. We used them to evaluate the effect of the location and size of necrotic lesions on collapse by finite element analysis, to offer a framework for evaluating the prognosis of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) in clinical settings.
Methods: 3 left hip models were constructed based on CT data.
