Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of Porous tantalum rod implantation and autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation on the treatment of avascular necrosis of femoral head (ANFH).Methods Thirty-six cases with early ANFH (19 cases on the left side and 17 cases on the right side) treated by Porous tantalum rod implantation and matrix induced autologous peripheral blood stem cell trans-plantation from July 2009 to March 2011.The 36 cases had osteonecrosis of the femoral head(ONFH) lesions Ⅰ and Ⅱ according to the international bone circulation Research Association (ARCO) classification of ONFH lesion.All patients were followed up for 12-15 months.Clinical evaluation included preoperative and postoperative pain score,the Harris hip score,percentage of low signal MRI area in the volume of femoral head.Results All the patients were followed up for 12 to 15 months.The postoperative Harris hip score was significantly higher than pre-operation ((91.70 ± 6.90) vs.(68.32 ± 7.10) ; t =4.364,P ＜ 0.01).Pain symptoms reduced markedly ((15.55 ±6.60) vs.(29.78 ±5.67);t =3.423,P ＜0.05).Hip flexion and external rotation function was restored.MRI showed that after the operations the volume of areas with femoral head necrosis significantly reduced in compared with the pre-operation ((38.20 ± 8.30) ％ vs.(21.43 ± 5.10) ％ ; t =6.527,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Porous tantalum rod implantation and autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation can significantly reduce joint pain,dramatically restore joint function,effectively prevent collapse of the femoral head,retard progression and has good clinical efficacy in the treatment of early femoral head necrosis.
