Osteonecrosis. The bones of the human body are made up of living cells that need a blood supply to stay healthy. In osteonecrosis, blood flow to part of a bone is disrupted. This results in death of bone tissue, and the bone can eventually break down and the joint will collapse. Stages. Stage 1 has a normal x-rays but MRI reveals the dead bone. Stage 2 can be seen on regular x-ray but there is no collapse of the femoral ball. Stage 3 shows signs of collapse (called a crescent sign) on x-ray. Stage 4 has collapse on x-ray and signs of cartilage damage (osteoarthritis). Symptoms. Pain in the joint that may increase over time and becomes severe if the bone collapses. Pain that occurs even at rest. Limited range of motion. Groin pain, if the hip joint is affected. Limping, if the condition occurs in the leg. Difficulty with overhead movement, if the shoulder joint is affected. Causes. Osteonecrosis can be caused by disease or by severe trauma, such as a fracture or dislocation, that affects the blood supply to the bone. Osteonecrosis can also occur without trauma or disease. This is called idiopathic -- meaning it occurs without any known cause. Treatment. This is the most common surgery for osteonecrosis, and it usually helps treat the disease in the earlier stages. It involves drilling one or more narrow shafts through the bone, lowering the pressure within it The procedure helps to relieve pain and slow disease progression. Exercises. Physical therapy may be useful during the early stages of osteonecrosis. The goal of physical therapy is to preserve function, reduce further damage to the bone, and treat pain. Rehabilitation efforts may include: Exercises to maintain range of motion.
