(zhì)類固醇和累積劑量對ONFH的預(yù)后沒有影響。由于ONFH的發(fā)展和預(yù)后是一個復雜的多因素過程，需要進一步研究。

骨質(zhì)疏松癥在初期通常沒有明顯的臨床表現(xiàn)，但是隨著發(fā)展，可能會出現(xiàn)脊柱變形、疼痛、和輕微外力下的骨折。因此稱它為寂靜的疾病或者靜悄悄的疾病?！?骨質(zhì)疏松主要有以下4個表現(xiàn)：（1）疼痛。疼痛是原發(fā)性骨質(zhì)疏松癥最為常見的癥狀?；颊弑憩F(xiàn)為不明原因的腰背疼痛，沿著脊柱兩側(cè)彌漫性癥布，平臥休息以后，疼痛可以稍微緩解，直立后仰、久站久坐后疼痛會非常明顯。（2）變矮駝背。許多老年朋友感覺自己身高跟年輕時相比明顯“縮水”了，腰也伸不直了。骨質(zhì)疏松的脊柱椎體骨量明顯減少、骨強度差，容易壓縮變形，尤其是彎腰等動作容易導致椎體前部分壓縮變扁，這種原因?qū)е碌纳砀叨炭s通常超過3厘米且有駝背的表現(xiàn)。（3）骨折。骨折是最嚴重的骨質(zhì)疏松并發(fā)癥，輕則影響機體功能，重則致殘甚至致死。嚴重骨質(zhì)疏松的患者，輕微受傷甚至日常做家務(wù)，如從沙發(fā)上坐地跌倒、彎腰拖地、崴腳就可導致相應(yīng)部位的骨折，常見的骨折部位是腰背部、髖部和手臂。（4）心肺功能受損。骨質(zhì)疏松的患者如發(fā)生胸、腰椎壓縮性骨折，可出現(xiàn)脊椎后凸畸形（駝背），胸腔容量變小且胸廓活動范圍受限，導致肺活量和最大換氣量顯著減少，患者往往感覺心慌、憋氣、氣不夠用等，以爬樓、擰重物時較為明顯。為什么會出現(xiàn)骨質(zhì)疏松？老年人容易得骨質(zhì)疏松主要是由于性激素的減少、臟器功能的減弱，刺激了破骨細胞，同時也抑制了成骨細胞的增生，造成了骨量減少。在臨床上骨質(zhì)疏松是非常常見的一種疾病。有研究表明，六十歲以上的老年人得骨質(zhì)疏松的幾率可以達到百分之三十五以上，并且隨著年齡的增長幾率逐漸增加。隨著老年人年齡的增長，其臟器的功能會下降，吸收營養(yǎng)的效率也會減退。導致維生素D的缺乏、鈣流失等，從而引起骨質(zhì)疏松。女性由于絕經(jīng)以后，雌激素水平降低，無法有效的抑制破骨細胞，導致破骨細胞過度的增生和活躍，也會導致骨的分解和吸收而形成骨質(zhì)疏松?？梢酝ㄟ^口服藥物以及在日常生活中增加鈣含量的食物來改善骨質(zhì)疏松。什么是腰間盤突出？骨質(zhì)疏松會導致骨頭強度下降，椎間盤承受壓力會過高，椎間盤纖維環(huán)發(fā)生破損的幾率就會變高。纖維環(huán)一旦破損就出現(xiàn)腰間盤突出，骨質(zhì)疏松跟腰間盤突出是有一定的關(guān)系的。骨質(zhì)疏松跟腰間盤突出是兩種不同的疾病，骨質(zhì)疏松使骨的強度下降，椎間盤突出是椎間盤破壞以后或椎間盤前塊損傷以后，導致神經(jīng)卡壓的一種表現(xiàn)。骨質(zhì)疏松如何引起股骨頭壞死？導致股骨頭壞死的常見因素，有長期服用激素類藥物，外傷以及大量飲酒，強制性的脊柱炎，先天性的髖臼發(fā)育不良等。骨質(zhì)疏松是股骨頭壞死的病因之一。骨質(zhì)疏松的患者骨骼中，蛋白鈣、磷的比例減少，骨的脆性增加，容易發(fā)生骨折。如果骨折發(fā)生在股骨頭部位，就會引發(fā)股骨頭的血運受到損害，造成股骨頭局部的血液循環(huán)障礙，進而引發(fā)股骨頭壞死。此外，由于骨質(zhì)疏松造成骨吸收增加，疏松的股骨頭強度會降低，股骨頭局部會出現(xiàn)壓縮塌陷，導致流經(jīng)股骨頭部的骨流量減少，股骨頭的骨細胞和骨髓成分會引發(fā)股骨頭壞死。骨質(zhì)疏松應(yīng)該如何進行治療？對于骨質(zhì)疏松首先要注意是骨質(zhì)疏松還是骨質(zhì)疏松癥，因為骨質(zhì)疏松是一個慢性的蛻變性信號。骨質(zhì)疏松治療方法：首先要強調(diào)非藥物的治療為主。比如采用平衡的飲食，適當?shù)难a充鈣劑、維生素D，適當?shù)幕顒?，戒煙，預(yù)防摔倒，這個是骨質(zhì)疏松一個基本的治療前提和方案。

股骨頭壞死（Avascularnecrosisofthefemoralhead.AVN）是一種常見的骨科疾病，指的是由于各種原因?qū)е鹿晒穷^的血液供應(yīng)不足，從而引起骨細胞和骨髓細胞的死亡，進而導致股骨頭的結(jié)構(gòu)破壞和塌陷，最終形成髖關(guān)節(jié)炎。股骨頭壞死多發(fā)生在中青年人群，主要表現(xiàn)為髖關(guān)節(jié)疼痛和活動受限，嚴重影響生活質(zhì)量和工作能力，被稱為“不死的癌癥”。股骨頭壞死的原因可以分為原發(fā)性和繼發(fā)性兩大類。原發(fā)性股骨頭壞死又稱為特發(fā)性股骨頭壞死：顧名思義，主要是指股骨頭壞死的原因不明確。對于有明確原因的股骨頭壞死，稱為繼發(fā)性股骨頭壞死，可分為創(chuàng)傷性和非創(chuàng)傷性兩大類。創(chuàng)傷性股骨頭壞死：是指由于髖部外傷，如股骨頸骨折、髖臼骨折、髖關(guān)節(jié)脫位等，導致股骨頭的血管受損或中斷，造成股骨頭的缺血壞死。非創(chuàng)傷性股骨頭壞死：是指由于其他原因，如長期使用或濫用糖皮質(zhì)激素、長期過量飲酒、減壓病、血液病、自身免疫病、感染、放射治療等，導致股骨頭的血管痙攣、狹窄、栓塞或閉塞，造成股骨頭的缺血壞死。我國非創(chuàng)傷性股骨頭壞死最常見的原因是飲酒和糖皮質(zhì)激素導致的壞死。因此，我們應(yīng)該避免長期大量飲酒，在醫(yī)生指導下應(yīng)用糖皮質(zhì)激素，預(yù)防出現(xiàn)股骨頭壞死。股骨頭壞死的癥狀因病變的部位、范圍和程度不同而異。早期，股骨頭壞死可能沒有明顯的癥狀，或者只有輕微的髖關(guān)節(jié)不適，難以引起注意。隨著病情的發(fā)展，股骨頭壞死會出現(xiàn)以下的癥狀：?髖關(guān)節(jié)疼痛：這是股骨頭壞死的最常見和最主要的癥狀，通常表現(xiàn)為病變側(cè)的髖部、臀部或腹股溝部位的疼痛，有時也會放射到大腿內(nèi)側(cè)或膝關(guān)節(jié)。疼痛的性質(zhì)可以是鈍痛、隱痛、刺痛或劇痛，疼痛的程度可以是輕微、中等或嚴重，疼痛的時間可以是間歇性、持續(xù)性或加重性。一般來說，疼痛會隨著活動的增加而加重，隨著休息的延長而減輕，但在病變嚴重時，即使在靜止或夜間也會出現(xiàn)疼痛。?髖關(guān)節(jié)活動受限：這是股骨頭壞死的另一個常見的癥狀，通常表現(xiàn)為病變側(cè)的髖關(guān)節(jié)的活動范圍減少，特別是內(nèi)旋、屈曲和外展等方向的活動受限。髖關(guān)節(jié)活動受限會影響患者的正常行走、下蹲、上下樓梯等日常活動，甚至導致跛行或需要使用輔助器具。?髖關(guān)節(jié)畸形：這是股骨頭壞死的晚期癥狀，通常表現(xiàn)為病變側(cè)的髖關(guān)節(jié)的外形發(fā)生改變，如股骨頭塌陷、髖關(guān)節(jié)間隙狹窄、下肢短縮等。髖關(guān)節(jié)畸形會進一步加重髖關(guān)節(jié)的疼痛和活動受限，甚至導致髖關(guān)節(jié)的功能喪失。股骨頭壞死的分型和分期有多種方法，常用的有以下幾種：?根據(jù)病變的程度，分為Ficat分期和ARCO分期。Ficat分期是最常用的分期方法，根據(jù)X線片的表現(xiàn)，分為0期、I期、II期、III期和IV期。0期：無疼痛，X線片正常，MRI或骨掃描出現(xiàn)異常；I期：有疼痛，X線片正常，MRI或骨掃描出現(xiàn)異常；II期：有疼痛，X線片出現(xiàn)囊性變或硬化，沒有軟骨下骨折；III期：有疼痛，X線片出現(xiàn)股骨頭塌陷，有新月征或臺階征；IV期：有疼痛，X線片出現(xiàn)髖臼病變，有關(guān)節(jié)間隙狹窄和骨關(guān)節(jié)炎。ARCO分型是在FICAT分期的基礎(chǔ)之上，根據(jù)X光片上股骨頭壞死的范圍，將每一期進一步分為ABC三個亞型，并發(fā)現(xiàn)ARCO1/2C型的患者股骨頭塌陷率高達70-90%。這是因為C型患者股骨頭壞死區(qū)域超出了髖臼邊緣以外，整個壞死區(qū)域都在髖臼應(yīng)力集中區(qū)域，因而更加容易發(fā)生塌陷。?A型：壞死區(qū)位于股骨頭的中心部，占據(jù)股骨頭的1/4至1/2。?B型：壞死區(qū)位于股骨頭的邊緣部，占據(jù)股骨頭的1/4至1/2，但仍在髖臼邊緣外側(cè)負重區(qū)以內(nèi)。?C型：壞死區(qū)位于股骨頭的整個部位，占據(jù)股骨頭的1/2以上，超過了髖臼邊緣外側(cè)負重區(qū)。ARCO分型的意義在于，由于不同類型患者的塌陷風險不同，該分型可以指導治療方案和預(yù)后：A型的患者可以采用保髖治療，如髓心減壓、骨移植等；B型的患者可以采用保髖或置換治療，如髖臼成形術(shù)、表面置換術(shù)等；C型的患者則需要采用置換治療，如全髖關(guān)節(jié)置換術(shù)。股骨頭壞死的治療方法主要有非手術(shù)治療和手術(shù)治療兩種。非手術(shù)治療適用于ARCO1/2A型患者，或者已塌陷患者置換前的對癥治療：?藥物治療：目前常用藥物包括降脂藥（如阿托伐他?。?、參與骨代謝藥物（如雙膦酸鹽）、抗凝藥（如阿司匹林）、血管擴張劑（如尼可地爾）、抗炎藥（如非甾體抗炎藥）等，可以改善股骨頭的血液循環(huán)，減輕炎癥反應(yīng)，促進骨組織修復。?物理治療：包括體外高能震波、高壓氧、電磁場、超聲波等，可以刺激股骨頭的血管生成，增加骨髓血流，抑制骨吸收，增強骨形成。非手術(shù)治療的優(yōu)點是無創(chuàng)、安全、經(jīng)濟，但缺點是效果不穩(wěn)定、不可預(yù)測，需要長期堅持，且不能根本解決股骨頭的壞死問題，只能延緩病情的進展。因此，非手術(shù)治療需要嚴格遵循醫(yī)囑，定期復查，及時評估療效，一旦發(fā)現(xiàn)股骨頭有塌陷的跡象，應(yīng)及時轉(zhuǎn)為手術(shù)治療。?保髖手術(shù)：保髖手術(shù)是指通過保留患者自身的股骨頭為主的修復重建術(shù)，來延緩或避免行人工髖關(guān)節(jié)置換術(shù)。保髖手術(shù)的種類很多，常用術(shù)式包括髓芯減壓術(shù)、截骨術(shù)、帶或不帶血運的骨移植術(shù)、鉭棒植入手術(shù)、介入手術(shù)、股骨頭自體干細胞移植等。保髖手術(shù)適用于股骨頭壞死早期（FICATⅠ期和Ⅱ期），且壞死體積在15%以上者。保髖手術(shù)的優(yōu)點是可以最大限度地保留患者自身的骨組織和關(guān)節(jié)功能，避免人工關(guān)節(jié)置換術(shù)的并發(fā)癥和修復術(shù)。但缺點是有一定的失敗率和復發(fā)率，需要嚴格掌握適應(yīng)癥和手術(shù)時機。對塌陷前的ARCO1-2A/B型的患者，積水潭醫(yī)院矯形骨科周一新教授領(lǐng)銜研發(fā)了一種新的股骨頭壞死保髖治療術(shù)式——多孔AVNCage（3D打印籠形鈦金屬假體）支撐術(shù)，可避免既往鉭棒、人工骨、異體骨等植入材料的局限性（如導致后續(xù)治療困難和粗隆區(qū)骨折的并發(fā)癥、不能長時間維持壞死區(qū)減壓、阻礙粗隆區(qū)向壞死區(qū)的修復通道、不能形成長期有效力學支撐等）。自2018年開始，我們采用AVNCAGE這一新型假體，并改良手術(shù)工具及手術(shù)方式，可避免牽引床手術(shù)，可有效避免術(shù)中股骨頭穿透等并發(fā)癥。該項創(chuàng)新術(shù)式將手術(shù)時間從1-2小時縮短為平均0.5小時，使2年股骨頭生存率從平均70-75%(髓心減壓術(shù)）提高至88%，使很多中青年病人避免了致殘及人工關(guān)節(jié)置換術(shù)，降低了醫(yī)療費用，獲批多項專利，獲NMPA3類注冊證1項，目前已經(jīng)在國內(nèi)臨床應(yīng)用400余例。針對股骨頭壞死已經(jīng)塌陷，但仍未發(fā)生髖關(guān)節(jié)骨關(guān)節(jié)炎的FICAT3期患者，傳統(tǒng)保髖手術(shù)就無能為力了。針對這一部分患者的臨床需求，積水潭醫(yī)院矯形骨科周一新教授領(lǐng)銜研發(fā)了一種新型3D打印個性化定制部分髖關(guān)節(jié)假體，采用不損傷旋股動脈的外科脫位入路，進行塌陷區(qū)域股骨頭的部分置換，恢復關(guān)節(jié)面平滑度，延緩關(guān)節(jié)炎進展，延后或避免全髖置換術(shù)。自2021年，我中心已開始以定制化手術(shù)開展3D打印定制部分髖關(guān)節(jié)置換術(shù)，適應(yīng)證為塌陷早期且壞死面積相對局限的股骨頭壞死病例，采用外科脫位入路，術(shù)中不切斷任何髖關(guān)節(jié)肌肉，保留髖臼側(cè)所有正常結(jié)構(gòu)，可極大保留髖關(guān)節(jié)功能，臨床隨訪使得傳統(tǒng)100需要髖關(guān)節(jié)置換的FICAT3期患者，有75%病例獲得明顯延緩甚至避免行全髖置換術(shù)。該手術(shù)填補了FICAT3期股骨頭壞死的手術(shù)治療空白，為因股骨頭塌陷致殘的中青年病人帶來了新的治療選擇。當股骨頭壞死進展為髖關(guān)節(jié)炎（FICAT4期），就失去了保髖治療機會了，需要進行人工髖關(guān)節(jié)置換術(shù)。人工髖關(guān)節(jié)置換術(shù)的種類也很多，常用術(shù)式包括全髖關(guān)節(jié)置換術(shù)、表面置換術(shù)、半髖關(guān)節(jié)置換術(shù)等。人工髖關(guān)節(jié)置換術(shù)適用于股骨頭壞死晚期（FICAT3-4期）且癥狀嚴重、保髖手術(shù)失敗或不適合者。人工髖關(guān)節(jié)置換術(shù)的優(yōu)點是可以徹底解決股骨頭壞死引起的疼痛和功能障礙，療效顯著、穩(wěn)定，但缺點是有一定的手術(shù)風險和并發(fā)癥，如感染、血栓、脫位、松動等，且人工關(guān)節(jié)有一定的使用壽命，對于年輕患者，存在可能需要進行二次翻修的風險。

股骨頭壞死早中期經(jīng)常面臨兩個問題：一、容易誤診、漏診，以至于失治誤治；二、治療方法選擇困難，對手術(shù)與否、何時手術(shù)心存疑慮，甚至錯過最佳治療時機。希望本案例可提供一點借鑒。男性，41歲，2016年12月主訴“不明原因右臀部疼痛”以雙側(cè)股骨頭壞死為診斷住院治療。在當?shù)蒯t(yī)院磁共振檢查確診，左側(cè)壞死尚無癥狀。在我院CT檢查示：X線檢查：術(shù)中所見：我們采用外科脫位技術(shù)，充分暴露股骨頭，經(jīng)圓韌帶窩窗口挖出死骨并進行植骨。術(shù)中見關(guān)節(jié)面軟骨發(fā)生退變，死骨松軟如豆腐渣。術(shù)后復查：術(shù)后1年復查：術(shù)后3.5年復查：骨吸收是股骨頭壞死修復過程中非常棘手的問題，必須采取積極措施阻止進一步惡化。通常會采取多種方法，包括藥物治療、高能聚焦沖擊波治療等。半年后再次復查：又過了1年，術(shù)后第5年復查：術(shù)后7年復查：術(shù)后8年復查：至于左側(cè)股骨頭壞死，因為面積較小，簡單采用中藥、沖擊波治療，一直情況穩(wěn)定，這次就不展開贅述。如下：幾句話總結(jié)1.年輕股骨頭壞死保頭要趁早，切莫沉醉在所謂“秘方”的幻想中，建議通過全面檢查評估制定周全的治療方案；2.大約2/5的早中期病例可通過保守治療控制病情，但需要手術(shù)的情況也不能視而不見，理性、客觀對待病情；3.股骨頭壞死的病情轉(zhuǎn)歸十分復雜，別人成功的經(jīng)驗一定不是放之四海而皆準，除了因人而異進行治療之外，必須堅持定期復查、長期觀察，以準確掌握病情變化，在關(guān)鍵節(jié)點調(diào)整治療措施；4.任何一種單一治療措施發(fā)揮的作用總是有限的，就如做飯放調(diào)料，某一種佐料看似不起眼，缺一樣就少一種味道，和諧搭配才能取得最佳效果。同樣，藥物治療、物理治療，甚或手術(shù)治療需要有機結(jié)合，切莫盲目相信某一種方法的“神奇”效果。

治療前股骨頭壞死對于年輕患者來說往往比較麻煩，如果可能的情況下，盡量對患者行保頭治療，給股骨頭一個能自我修復的機會，如果成功了，還是自己原裝的好。治療中術(shù)前透視下精確定位好壞死位置，使用專用工具對病灶徹底刮除，沖洗，再行打壓植骨填充壞死區(qū)治療后治療后7天患者創(chuàng)傷小，術(shù)后恢復快。7天出院，出院前拍片復查。最后一張為術(shù)后一個月

股骨頭壞死是股骨頭血供受損或中斷，導致骨髓成分及骨細胞死亡，隨后發(fā)生修復，繼而導致股骨頭結(jié)構(gòu)改變甚至塌陷的系列病理改變與臨床表現(xiàn)。國際骨循環(huán)研究協(xié)會（AssociationResearchCirculationOsseous，ARCO）制訂的股骨頭壞死分期在指導治療、判斷預(yù)后、評估療效方面得到廣泛應(yīng)用。2019年11月，關(guān)節(jié)外科雜志（JournalofArthroplasty）在線發(fā)表了韓國學者Kyung-HoiKoo牽頭的專家組制訂的股骨頭壞死分期標準修訂版。這是自1994年以來國際骨循環(huán)研究協(xié)會分期的重大改變。修訂后的ARCO分期為四分期體系，特點包括：取消了0期分期，確定Ⅰ和Ⅱ期為塌陷前病變，Ⅲ期細化為早、晚期，X線片出現(xiàn)關(guān)節(jié)間隙變窄、髖臼改變和關(guān)節(jié)破壞的骨關(guān)節(jié)炎表現(xiàn)歸入Ⅳ期。此分期考慮到了股骨頭壞死的部位在分期中的作用，在閱歷了數(shù)次改良后現(xiàn)被廣泛用于臨床，對股骨頭壞死的診斷、治療和預(yù)后具有重要價值。
