Treatment of avascular necrosis of femoral head with cemented total hip replacement a prospective study
Journal Title: International Journal of Orthopaedics Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Total hip arthroplasty is a remarkable surgical procedure that provides mobility stability as well as better quality of life in persons suffering from hip disorder. It is procedure in which surgical excision of femoral head and proximal neck is done and is replaced with metal ball; while the acetabulum is resurface with metal shell & plastic liner. Total hip arthroplasty is a reconstructive procedure, that improve the management of those diseases of hip joint that respond poorly to conventional medical therapy and produce great problems in patient thus eliminate pain and restore function of hip. At present it is the most commonly performed re-constructive hip surgery in elderly. This prospective study done in the Department of Orthopaedics, Rajendra Institute Of Medical Science, Ranchi during the period 2014 to 2016. Aim of study was to evaluate the clinical, functional and radiological outcome of total hip arthroplasty. 30 Patient with avascular necrosis of femur head admitted during above period was selected for study after proper clinical, radiological and laboratory evaluation. The functional outcome was measured with Harris Hip Score. On postoperative evaluation 3 cases i.e 10% patients had excellent result, 24 cases i.e 80% had good result, 2 cases i.e 6.66% patients had fair result and 1 cases i.e 3.33% patients had poor result.
