Core Tip |
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a painful disorder which usually results in hip joint destruction. Although the pathogenic process is poorly understood, ON is the final condition that completes an already precarious microcirculation of the FH by traumatic and non-traumatic causes. Since vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) regulates numerous cellular events associated with angiogenesis and osteogenesis, we evaluated, in an experimental model of ONFH in canines if the local treatment with VEGF leads to bone tissue remodeling and new bone formation at the necrotic site, and subsequently to reversal of ON. |
