Analysis of the long-term efficacy of core decompression with synthetic calcium-sulfate bone grafting on non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head
Résumé
Objective: to investigate the safety and long-term efficacy of core decompression with synthetic calcium-sulfate bone grafting on non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Method: a total of 76 patients with non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head were admitted to our hospital from February 2012 to November 2014 and included in the study. All the patients were treated by core decompression with synthetic calcium-sulfate bone grafting. After treatment, the patients were followed-up for 12 months. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and perioperative complications were also recorded intraoperatively to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety. The preoperative and postoperative pain scores measured by visual analogy score (VAS) were also recorded and compared. Results: all of the 76 patients were successfully operated and included in the study. The mean operation time was 34.6±14.2 min, and the intraoperative blood loss was 23.6±8.9 mL. The patients hip functions were assessed on the basis of the Harris hip score, 3 and 12 months after operation. The excellent rates 3 and 12 months after operation were significantly higher than those before operation (P<0.05). The imaging stabilities of the hip joints 3 and 12 months after operation were significantly higher than those before operation (P<0.05). The patient postoperative pain scores (VAS score) gradually decreased. The VAS scores 12 months after operation were significantly lower than those before operation (P<0.05). Conclusion: the long-term efficacy of core decompression with synthetic calcium-sulfate bone grafting on non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head is good and accompanied with significantly improved postoperative joint functions.
