AVN treatment in India- Stem cells, Mini hip replacement
AVN or avascular necrosis of hips is a common condition in India. The Times of India recently reported that there are 20 cases in 100000 of population. This is a sizeable number. It is a condition where the blood supply to the femoral head (uppermost part of thigh bone)gets shut off and causes the bone to collapse slowly. As the bone dies, the patient experiences excruciating pain and limited or no movement. Late cases can lead to arthritis of the hips.Stem cell treatment in early cases is a latest advance and has been proposed to prevent the disease from advancing further. If it does so and causes bone collapse,traditionally a total hip replacement has been recommended. We advocate a more conservative approach with a short stem hip replacement. This video explains the key differences between a short stem and total hip replacement.
