ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore clinical effects of drilling decompression for femoral head necrosis at collapse stage.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Totally 22 patients with femoral head necrosis on both side were analyzed from March 2006 to February 2009. Among them, there were 20 males and 2 females aged from 24 to 52 years old with an average of 38.4 years old. All patients were Ficat I on one side and Ficat I or II on another side. Drilling decompression were performed on all patients. The average followed-up period was 5.4 years (ranged, 1 to 8 years). The endpoint of severe pain(VAS ≥7), severe dysfunction (Harris ≤ 70), radiographic progression on Ficat IV and total hip arhtroplasty (THA) was used for survivorship analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Severe pain as an endpoint,13 cases were survived on Ficat III and 18 cases on Ficat I or II (P>0.05). Severe dysfunction as an endpoint, 6 cases were survived on Ficat III and 18 on Ficat I or II (P<0.05). Radiographic progression on Ficat IV as an endpoint, 2 cases were survived on Ficat III and 18 on Ficat I or II (P<0.05). THA as an endpoint, 13 cases were survived on Ficat I and 18 cases on Ficat I or II (P>0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Femoral head necrosis with Ficat III treated with drilling decompression could prolong progression of disease , decrease percentage of THA.</p>
