Arthroscopic Approach to Preservation of the Hip with Avascular Necrosis


ABSTRACT: Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip is a devastating disease that affects middle-aged adults with poor outcomes if not treated in its early stages. In recent years, subchondroplasty with calcium phosphate solution has shown promising results. Concomitant intra-articular pathologies, including femoroacetabular impingement and chondral lesions, have been described in hips affected by AVN. These should be addressed at the time of surgery to lower the risk of failure. In this Technical Note, we describe an arthroscopic approach to femoral head subchondroplasty with precollapse lesion in AVN affected hip, combined with labral reconstruction and acetabular chondral treatment. Technique Video Video 1 This video presents a reproducible one-stage joint preservative arthroscopic approach for treatment of hip intra-articular pathology in the set of avascular necrosis. Complete imaging is required to stage the disease as well as preoperative planning. Fluoroscopy during hip arthroscopy is important to accurately address subchondroplasty.
