Abstract

This study is retrospective, non-experimental, and seeks to relate the main characteristics of hip arthroplasty as a treatment for avascular bone necrosis. A group of patients was taken for the investigation of approximately 40 people who suffered from the disease of almost 109 hip arthroplasties performed at the institution where the investigation was carried out. This gave us as a result that total hip arthroplasty is the most used therapeutic procedure, sex is not an important risk factor. In the female age over 60 years is a risk factor, while in the male it is between 30 and 50 years. The intake of corticosteroids and traumas are the most important pathological antecedents.
