Abstract:
Objective To observe the therapeutic effects of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) combined with autologous bone marrow stem cells (BMSC) transplantation in treating early-stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH).Methods Forty patients diagnosed as stage Ⅰ or Ⅱ according to the classification of osteonecrosis of the femoral head put forward by the Association Research Circulation Osseous were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group with 20 cases in each group.Both groups were treated with BMSC transplantation,while the treatment group was further treated with ESWT the next day.Harris scores were assigned before the treatment and 3,6,12 and 24 months after the treatment to evaluate hip function,the degree of pain and the effects of the treatment.Frog-bit X-rays of the anteroposterior pelvis were taken to assess the stages.Results There were significant differences in the Harris scores and pain degree of the two groups before and at the different time points after the treatment.After 6,12 and 24 months,significant differences were observed in the two values between the two groups.After 12 months the number of hips rated excellent,good and medium level were 8,18 and 1 in the treatment group and 5,13 and 8 in the control group,showing significant differences.Conclusion Extracorporeal shock wave therapy along with autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation can be used to treat patients with early stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head,relieving their pain and improving their joint function.
