Abstract

Summary


Objective: To determine the characteristics on MRI of femoral head avascular necrosis by stage. Subject and method: 32 patients (39 femoral head) with avascular necrosis treated at 103 Military Hospital from Mar. 2017 to Aug. 2018. Severity of pain was assessed by numeric rating scale. Compare  characteristics on MRI with pain by Fisher exact test. Result: Crescent sign, epiphyseal collapse and bone marrow edema were related to pain. The patients with necrosis class A often had light pain whereas others with class D had severe pain. The patients with later stage often had sever pain than one with early stage. Conclusion: There was a relationship between pain and characteristics on MR of avascular necrosis femoral head.


Keywords: Avascular necrosis, crescent sign, marrow bone edema, subchondral fractures, numeric rating scale.
