Snippet: Corticosteroids are widely used for the treatment of various diseases with a side effect of ONFH primarily affecting younger, active populations. The incidence of corticosteroid-induced ONFH is influenced by the combination of high-dose corticosteroids and underlying diseases in certain predisposed individuals mainly in the first 3 months. Aside from minimizing exposure to established risk factors, there are no measures that can fundamentally pre.....
Document: Corticosteroids are widely used for the treatment of various diseases with a side effect of ONFH primarily affecting younger, active populations. The incidence of corticosteroid-induced ONFH is influenced by the combination of high-dose corticosteroids and underlying diseases in certain predisposed individuals mainly in the first 3 months. Aside from minimizing exposure to established risk factors, there are no measures that can fundamentally prevent the development of ONFH. The awareness of risk factors and earlier definitive diagnosis are essential for the success of joint preservation. When following up a patient with osteonecrosis, treatments are determined by lesion characteristics, patient factors, and preference of doctors. Surgical treatment showed better results than conservative therapy in earlier-stage ONFH, and there should be a trend in minimizing the surgical injury and evaluation of treatment for preserving the femoral head with normal function throughout a patient's life.
