Non-Surgical Treatment for AVN Hip: Core Decompression with PRP and Bone Grafting

Avascular Necrosis (AVN) of the Hip is a condition where reduced blood supply leads to bone death and joint collapse.

We offer advanced, joint-preserving solutions to avoid or delay hip replacement, especially in early stages:
Core Decompression: Minimally invasive drilling into the bone to reduce pressure and promote blood flow.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Augmentation: Injection of concentrated growth factors to stimulate healing.
Bone Grafting: Filling the decompressed area with bone graft to support regeneration.
Benefits:

  • Reduces pain
