Abstract

Osteonecrosis of the femoral head mostly leads into severe secondary coxarthrosis, if left untreated. Depending on the localization and the extent of the osteonecrosis various surgical treatment options can be considered. Advanced stages with collapse of the articular surface or advanced cartilage lesions mostly require endoprosthetics. Due to the mostly young age of the patients, (femoral) resurfacing arthroplasty can be considered, if not grossly cystic. Otherwise, a total hip replacement should be performed which keeps the gold standard. The different prosthetic options are discussed on evidence-based pricipals.
