Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To verify that CT scan and X-ray can predict the collapse of the necrotic femoral head before hip arthroplasty and effectively guide the surgical management.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a common and frequently occurring disease. The main clinical manifestations are hip pain and dysfunction. The etiology and pathogenesis of ONFH caused by various reasons are the problems that have not been solved yet in the field of orthopedics. If want to achieve satisfactory therapeutic effect, surgical choice is essential. It is very important for prognosis to master the indications of operation and take appropriate treatment measures, especially the great difference between palliative surgery and hip arthroplasty.

To determine whether the femoral head collapses and the degree of collapse of the articular cartilage of the femoral head can help physicians to select an optimal surgical plan. Chinese scholars commonly believe that if the femoral head collapse is less than 2 mm, investigators can choose autologous bone graft, allogeneic bone graft and other palliative surgery. If the femoral head collapse is more than 2 mm, investigators can choose total hip arthroplasty. However, above standard has not been extensively accepted worldwide.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

X-ray group

In the X-ray group, the changes in femoral head height were measured with X-ray in an anteroposterior position of the pelvis (healthy and affected sides of the hip) at preoperative 1 week.

Group Type OTHER

X-ray

Intervention Type RADIATION

In the X-ray group, the changes in femoral head height were measured with X-ray in an anteroposterior position of the pelvis (healthy and affected sides of the hip) at preoperative 1 week

CT group

In the CT group, changes of femoral head height were measured with CT scan on bilateral hips (healthy side and affected side) at preoperative 1 week.

Group Type OTHER

CT

Intervention Type RADIATION

In the CT group, changes of femoral head height were measured with CT scan on bilateral hips (healthy side and affected side) at preoperative 1 week

Specimen group

In the specimen group, femoral head on the affected side was resected during surgery and directly measured with a ruler and vernier caliper.

Group Type OTHER
