Abstract

Objective: Because idiopathic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ION) frequently develops in young adults, joint-preserving surgery is important. We retrospectively reviewed the clinical and radiographic results in patients who underwent transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy of the femoral head over a 5-year period in our institution.<br>Methods: We were able to follow up 32 consecutive patients (25 male patients and 7 female patients. 38 hips) for a mean of 13.5 years. The average age was 37.7 years at the time of surgery. Using the Japanese Organizing Committee classification, the ION stage was 2 in 1 joint, 3A in 24 joints, and 3B in 13 joints. The necrotic type was C-1 in 6 joints and C-2 in 32 joints, according to the Japanese Organizing Committee classification. Patients were evaluated using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association Score (JOA score) and radiographic analysis.<br>Results: The mean JOA score improved from 54.7 to 86.6 points (P < 0.0001) at the time of the final follow-up evaluation. Radiographically, the osteonecrosis in 26 hips (68%) had no progressive collapse, but 12 hips (32%) showed osteoarthritic changes and collapse. Six patients (eight hips) underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA). The postoperative intact area ratio (%) was significantly different between those with no progressive collapse (74.5%) and those with progressive collapse (45.4%) (P < 0.05). The cumulative survival rate was 75.6% at 13 years, with conversion to THA as the end point. Conclusion: In patients with extensive lesions, adequate rotation and intentional varus position is important to prevent the collapse of the transposed necrotic area.
