Abstract
OBJECTIVETo evaluate the surgical technique, clinical results, and the complications of modified free vascularized fibular grafting for the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head.METHODSFrom October 2000 to August 2004, 124 patients (139 hips) with osteonecrosis of the femoral head were treated with modified free vascularized fibular grafting. There were 83 males(93 hips) and 41 females (46 hips), with a mean age of 36.4 years (16-57). The disease was caused by trauma in 49 cases(54 hips), use of steroids in 29 cases (32 hips), consumption of alcohol in 19 cases (21 hips) and idiopathic condition in 27 cases (32 hips). Of 139 hips, 50 were classified as stage II ; 71 as stage II, 18 as stage IV according to Steinberg system; the Harris hip scores were 79.3, 69.3 and 58.4, respectively. At the operation, modified technique of the fibular osteotomy was adopted. A front-hip operative approach was designed and a modified technique of removing the necrotic bone in femoral head was applied. During operation
