During 2017–2021 in the facilities of the orthopedic department of the Khabarovsk Krai Clinical Hospital named after prof. O.V. Vladimirtseva patients with avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) stages 0, 1 and 2 have been surgically treated with minimally invasive two-stage decompression with bone alloplasty. The results of radiological diagnosis and arthroscopic picture in the initial stages of the disease were evaluated. The results obtained, the identity of the MRI diagnostic data and the arthroscopic featers indicate the unreasonableness of performing therapeutic and diagnostic arthroscopy in combination with tunnelization, revision of the femoral head cyst and further alloplasty in stages 1 and 2 of the disease, which does not exclude the possibility of using this technology in other stages of ANFH
