Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Jumping of explosive force in sports can result in hip joint injury. Sudden force on some sites surrounding the hip joint may lead to avulsion fracture.
OBJECTIVE: To summarize advances in hip replacement for sports necrosis of femoral head, replacement materials and complications and evaluate performance and application of biomaterials used in repairing sports femoral head injury.
METHODS: A computer-based online search of Pubmed and Wanfang Database was performed for articles regarding biomaterials used in tissue engineered tendon scaffold published between January 1991 and Dember 2010, with key words “necrosis of femoral head, biomaterials, hip replacement, complication” in Chinese and “artificial hip joints, biomaterials, prostheses” in English. Repetitive studies, review articles and Meta analysis were excluded. A total of 21 articles were included and evaluated.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Selection of hip replacement techniques for necrosis of femoral head and evaluation of replacement materials performance were analyzed. Hip replacement techniques and replacement materials have advantages and disadvantages. Ceramics femoral head prosthesis and metal-to-metal prosthesis can reduce polymer polyethylenewearing particles induced prosthesis loosening. Total hip replacement is an effective approach for advanced stage of hip joint diseases. Moreover, it has been regarded as gold standard for middle and advanced stage of necrosis of femoral head due to wide indication range and favorable effects.
