## Abstract Traumatic dislocation of the hip results in osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) or avascular necrosis (AVN) in βΌ40% of patients. This highβenergy event causes an ischemic insult to the femoral head that may lead to ONFH. Here, we investigate use of FreeβVascularized Fibular Graftin
## Abstract Free fibular bone grafting is an effective treatment for early osteonecrosis of the femoral head in young patients. However, recipient vessels are often small rendering microvascular anastomosis difficult. We have developed a novel technique using retrograde flow through the branches of
## Abstract We present a case of a 34βyearβold white female patient who, 13 years ago, sustained a pathological intracapsular femoral neck fracture on a preβexisting aneurysmal bone cyst. Three months later radiographic and magnetic resonance imaging evaluation revealed both femoral neck fracture a
## Abstract Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) usually affects young individuals. In advanced stages of ONFH, total hip replacement is the golden standard. However, survivorship after total hip replacement has been reported to be poorer in patients with ONFH compared to patients with primary
It has been suggested that decreased replication capacity of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) or decreased MSCs activity in the bone marrow is related to nontraumatic osteonecrosis (ON). However, little is known about differentiation ability of MSCs according to the risk factor of nontraumatic ON. We h
