FEMORAL NECK ROTATIONAL OSTEOTOMY FOR FEMORAL HEAD OSTEONECROSIS FICAT ARLET STAGE i: A CASE REPORT Satria Prawira Putra. MD1. Dicky Mulyadi2. Nur Rahmansyah. MD3 Fellow of Hip.

Indonesia ABSTRACT Femoral Neck Rotational Osteotomy (FNRO) is an advanced surgical technique designed to address femoral head osteonecrosis, particularly in young patients where hip preservation is critical. This case report discusses the successful application of FNRO in a 17-year-old female patient presenting with severe left hip pain and femoral head collapse, diagnosed as Ficat-Arlet stage i osteonecrosis. The surgery involved a precise osteotomy at the femoral neck base with careful preservation of the blood supply, achieved through circumferential release of the capsule and retinaculum. Postoperatively, the patient demonstrated significant improvement in hip motion and pain relief, as confirmed by radiographic and clinical assessments. FNRO presents distinct advantages over traditional methods, including enhanced exposure, stable fixation, and the potential for early rehabilitation. However, further research is necessary to evaluate long-term outcomes.

PROXIMAL TIBIAL SLIDING OSTEOTOMY AS AN ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION FOR PATIENTS WITH PROXIMAL TIBIAL BONE DEFECT AFTER NEGLECTED TIBIAL PLATEAU FRACTURES UNDERGOING TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY - A CASE REPORT INTRODUCTION Hip preservation surgery is preferred but remains a challenge for young patients with avascular necrosis of the femoral head (AVN) . Since the necrotic portion was moved away from the weight-bearing region, good results of trans trochanteric rotational osteotomy (TRO) and trans trochanteric curved varus osteotomy (TCVO) have been reported by Japanese surgeons after long-term follow-up. Two surgical techniques were emphasized for success of the osteotomy. First, the transposed intact area should be more than 36% of the weight-bearing region . Second, the blood supply of proximal femur, especially the branches of the medial femoral circumflex artery (MFCA), must be carefully protected during osteotomy and transposition. Achieving these conflicting goals was a challenge for Excessive rotation would tighten the retinaculum that contains the blood supply of proximal femur, and most complications and failure of this procedure are related to its technically demanding nature and the poor fixation stability provided by the screws, causing delayed union and increased varus . Based on this point of view. The retinaculum was released during the surgery, and rotational osteotomy was performed at the base of the femoral neck.

The pain was severe when the patient The patients walked with an assistive device. Physical examination revealed positive tenderness in the anterior and posterior hip joints. Plain Pelvic AP view radiograph showed collapse of the left head femoral . The patient had a femoral neck rotational osteotomy after being informed and was positioned right lateral decubitus under spinal anesthesia. Lateral, straight, longitudinal skin incision of 12 to 17 cm was made, depending on the size and weight of the patient . The incision was centered over the greater trochanter and extended from 5 cm below the vastus lateralis ridge of the greater trochanter to 5 to 7 cm proximal to the greater trochanter. We used a posterior approach to the hip joint (Kocher Langenbec. The short external rotator muscles, except the quadratus femoris, were completely transected.

PRESENTATION OF CASE A 17-year-old female presented to the hospital with a serious complaint of left hip discomfort that had occurred one year When the sufferer walked, the pain was excruciating. The patients walked with the assistance of a walker. Physical examination revealed anterior and posterior hip joint pain. The collapse of the left head femoral was visible on a plain Pelvic AP view radiograph. After being told, the patient underwent a femoral neck rotational osteotomy and was positioned right lateral decubitus under spinal anesthetic (Table 1.

When compared to the original TRO approach, a FNRO has various advantages (Figure 1. The greater trochanter does not need to be detached and reattached. As a result, there is no need for concern for larger trochanter nonunion. The quadratus femoris is not separated FNRO can be combined with other operations such as a muscle-pedicle-bone (Figure Sugioka's postoperative therapy includes continuous skin traction for one week, followed by overnight skin traction for another two Within two weeks of surgery, active hip exercises started. Early rehabilitation is possible in our series since skin traction is not required postoperatively, and our patients begin hip mobilization exercises the day following surgery (Figure 3. Subsequent THA may be easier since the anatomy of the greater trochanter is not altered and the quadratus femoris is not separated, which may be significant for circulation preservation. When the posterior branch of the medial circumflex artery is damaged during surgery, circulation may be preserved via the quadratus femoris. PROXIMAL TIBIAL SLIDING OSTEOTOMY AS AN ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION FOR PATIENTS WITH PROXIMAL TIBIAL BONE DEFECT AFTER NEGLECTED TIBIAL PLATEAU FRACTURES UNDERGOING TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY - A CASE REPORT According to one study, quadratus femoris muscle-pedicle-bone grafting could be used to treat displaced femoral neck microcirculation would presumably offer more blood flow through the quadratus femoris muscle (Figure 4. Our study is restricted by the short duration of followup. Longer follow-up would be required in this patient population to evaluate the true survivability of this surgery.

FNRO has the advantages of safe exposure, maintaining blood supply, no concern about nonunion of the greater trochanter, the ability to combine additional procedures such as muscle pedicle-bone graft with FNRO, probable early recovery, and subsequent THA may be easier. More research is needed to assess the long-term outcome of FNRO. REFERENCES
