Abstract:
Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip is a progressive condition that can lead to joint destruction if not treated effectively. Core decompression is a standard intervention for early-stage AVN, and the addition of a fibula graft may enhance structural support and promote healing. This prospective study evaluates the clinical and radiological outcomes of combining core decompression with fibula grafting in patients with Grade 2 AVN of the hip. Over a two-year follow-up period, we assess pain relief, functional improvement, and radiographic changes.
