Functional outcome, pain scores, and radiographic changes at an average follow-up of 22 months were analyzed and reported.</p> <h2>Results</h2> <p>Thirteen patients had satisfactory outcome at final follow-up with an average Oxford hip score of 37.3, pain scores were significantly improved at final follow-up (P < 0.001), and 26.7% of hips progressed to collapse on follow-up radiographs with no complications reported in all patients.</p> <h2>Conclusion</h2> <p>Hyperbaric oxygen treatment for pre-collapse avascular necrosis of the femoral head is considered a safe alternative with satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes and low complications rate.</p><h2>Other Information</h2> <p> Published in: International Orthopaedics<br> License: <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0" target="_blank">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00264-021-05120-3" target="_blank">http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00264-021-05120-3</a></p> |
