Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) expression in the femoral heads of patients with avascular necrosis
(2013)Avascular necrosis (AVN) is a disorder of the bone repair process which usually results in femoral head (FH) destruction. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are the key proteins regulating bone remodelling and healing. ... -
Fast sequences MR imaging at the investigation of painful skeletal sites in patients with hip osteonecrosis
(2015)Background: Multiple osteonecrotic foci can be clinically silent when located in metaphyses and becomes painful when it affects juxta-articular areas. The purpose of this study was to assess the value of fast MR imaging ... -
Genetic background of osteonecrosis: Associated with thrombophilic mutations?
(2004)Intravascular coagulation is considered a major pathogenetic mechanism for nontraumatic osteonecrosis. The aim of our study was to evaluate the association of thrombophilic factor V G1691A mutation (factor V Leiden) and ... -
MR imaging findings in early osteoarthritis of the knee
(2004)Purpose: To carry out a modern diagnostic survey among patients with a clinical and radiological diagnosis of early osteoarthritis of the knee. Materials and methods:A magnetic resonance imaging survey was performed on 70 ... -
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head: Etiology, imaging and treatment
(2007)Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a disabling clinical entity affecting young adults that usually leads to destruction of the hip joint. A high index of suspicion is necessary for the diagnosis due to the insidious onset ... -
Postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Osteonecrosis must not be overlooked
(2022)Recovery from COVID-19 is not always uneventful, especially in critically ill hospitalized patients. Persistent symptoms including fatigue/ weakness, shortness of breath, anxiety, and depression have been described at ... -
Prediction of collapse of the osteonecrosis of the hip by determining location and size of the lesion: A 2 to 17 years study
(2010)Osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a disease responsible for a large number of arthroplasties in young and active patients in the western world. Prediction of outcome of the disease remains a difficult task. The purpose ... -
Predictive role of cytokine gene polymorphisms for the development of femoral head osteonecrosis
(2012)Introduction: Osteonecrosis (ON) is a multifactorial disease that leads to hip destruction. Lately, much focus has been at femoral head preservation with nonsurgical methods. In this study we examined the polymorphisms of ... -
Prognosis of collapse of the osteonecrosis of the femoral head for patients treated with a tantalum rod by determining location and size of the lesion
(2009)The purpose of this study is to predict the osteonecrosis of the femoral head by examining the location and size of the lesion of the femoral head. A triangulation approximation algorithm is used for the computation of the ... -
Significance of size and location of the lesion for prognosis of collapse of osteonecrosis of the femoral head for patients treated with tantalum rod
(2010)The purpose of this study is to predict osteonecrosis of the femoral head by examining location and size of the lesion of the femoral head. A triangulation approximation algorithm is used for the computation of the geometric ... -
Survivorship of monoblock trabecular metal cups in primary THA: Midterm results
(2008)Monoblock trabecular metal cups are made of a novel porous material intended to enhance ingrowth and improve fixation. We prospectively followed 223 consecutive patients with 245 trabecular metal acetabular cups implanted ... -
Vascularised bone grafts for the management of non-union
(2006)Non-union of the long bones may have severe consequences, particularly when combined with other post-traumatic sequelae, such as tendon adhesions, reflex sympathetic dystrophy and infection, among others. In these cases, ...
