[A systemic approach to the surgical treatment of degenerative-dystrophic diseases of the hip joint]

Abstract

Based on the experience gained with the surgical treatment of over 900 patients with different forms of degenerative dystrophic diseases of the hip joint the current principles of the choice of different types of surgical interventions were defined. As far as the patients with aseptic necrosis of the head of the femur are concerned, the main problem in this case lies in the early diagnosis of osteonecrosis. The surgical treatment is specified by the leading factor of the pathogenesis at every stage of the development of the process (vascular disorders, changes in the biomechanism of the joint). The planning of operations in patients with dysplastic coxarthrosis rests on the consideration of 8 basic factors that influence the disease by means of factorial analysis and determination of the prognostic estimations of the treatment efficacy.
