Avascular necrosis or osteonecrosis is the death of bone tissues caused due to the lack of blood supply; it leads to the formation of tiny cracks in the bone which progresses to bone collapse within 2 years. The common causes of AVN are long-term usage of steroids, smoking, trauma, genetic disorder, fatty deposits, and alcohol consumption. It is more common in the age bracket of 30-50 but can also affect those in their 20s. There are no symptoms in the primary stages but as it progresses, the pain in & around the affected area multiplies. Currently, there is no treatment available to cure the condition, patients are often left with joint replacement as the last resort. |
