Haim Stein, Gershon Volpin, Dori Hörer

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Osteonecrosis is a devastating, locally progressive degenerative condition that mainly affects young adults. Osteonecrosis of the femoral head requires biological hip reconstruction. This article describes a technique that uses a vascularized muscle pedicle flap as a viable bone graft for treatment of this condition.
