Multiple drilling is not effective in reducing the rate of conversion to Total hip Arthroplasty in early-stage nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head: a case-control comparative study with a natural course

Abstract: Background To determine whether multiple drilling is effective in postponing the need for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in early-stage nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Methods We identified 514 patients who were diagnosed with early-stage ONFH between January 2008 and December 2018. One hundred ninety-six patients underwent multiple drilling, and 318 patients had a natural course of progression. One hundred fifty-nine patients … Show more

“…In 1990, some scholars reported 53 patients with acetabular fractures, 55 hips were treated with THA, and 13 patients were treated with open reduction and internal fixation and were followed up for 7.5 years [ 22 ]. Finally, 10 patients needed revision surgery [ 23 ]. In terms of conventional THA, due to scar tissue, formation of ectopic ossification, obstruction of internal fixation, and so on, the survival rate of the prosthesis is lower [ 24 ].…”

“…In several reports, the success rate of CD was greatly reduced, and the THA conversion rate was increased in ONFH with large necrotic lesions [ 34 , 35 ]. Because varying rates of success have been reported depending on the study sample size, follow-up period, and type of augmentation [ 36 ], the efficacy of MD remains controversial.…”

“…In addition, some studies report that CD can only exert a short-term therapeutic effect and the long-term curative effect is poor and does not preclude the need for total hip replacement (73)(74)(75)(76). Multiple drilling cannot effectively reduce the rate of THA conversion in early-stage NONFH.…”

“…Multiple drilling cannot effectively reduce the rate of THA conversion in early-stage NONFH. In fact, the risk of conversion to THA is increased after multiple drilling in case of larger necrotic lesions, presence of bone marrow edema and higher postoperative workload ( 74 , 75 ). Furthermore, Sadile et al ( 76 ) report lower efficacy of CD against NONFH compared with that of other palliative surgical techniques in terms of clinical status, imaging characteristics and the need for total hip replacement.…”
