Abstract

Objective To explore the clinical significance of interventional therapy in avascular necrosis of femoral head(ANFH).Methods 5F-Cobra catheter were inserted into femoral artery of 11 patients with ANFH from Jan.2007 to May 2008 in Zhengzhou central hospital.Then papaverine and urokinase were slowly injected.Results It had obvious recent curative effects and satisfactory medium-long term results.The pain relief rate was 90.9% and the function improved rate of hip was 72.7%.Conclusion interventional therapy in avascular nearosis of femoral head in an effective and safe method.
