Advanced Care for Avascular Necrosis of the Hip by Dr Kaushik Patel
If you’re struggling with persistent hip pain, stiffness, or difficulty walking — and have been told you may have Avascular Necrosis (AVN) — don’t ignore it. AVN of the hip is a serious but treatable condition.
Dr Kaushik Patel, a leading Robotic Hip Replacement Surgeon in Surat, Gujarat, provides comprehensive diagnosis and advanced treatment options for AVN, from early-stage preservation techniques to robotic hip replacement.
What is Hip AVN (Avascular Necrosis)?
Avascular Necrosis (AVN), also known as Osteonecrosis of the Hip, is a condition where the blood supply to the femoral head (the ball of your hip joint) is reduced or cut off. Without enough blood flow, the bone tissue dies, leading to collapse of the femoral head and eventual joint destruction.
If not treated early, AVN can progress rapidly — causing severe pain, limited motion, and arthritis of the hip.

Common Causes of Hip AVN
-
Long-term use of corticosteroid medications
-
Excessive alcohol consumption
-
Trauma or fracture around the hip joint
-
Blood clotting disorders
-
Sickle cell disease or autoimmune disorders
-
Idiopathic (unknown cause — common in young adults)
Symptoms of AVN of the Hip
-
Pain in the groin, thigh, or buttock
-
Stiffness and reduced hip movement
-
Pain worsening with activity or at night
-
Limping or difficulty standing for long
-
Clicking or catching sensation in the hip

1️⃣ Non-Surgical (Early Stage)
-
Medications & Supplements: To improve blood flow and relieve pain
-
Restricted Weight-Bearing: Using crutches to reduce stress on the hip
-
Physiotherapy: To maintain joint mobility and muscle strength
-
Stem Cell Therapy / PRP: In select early-stage cases to promote bone healing
2️⃣ Surgical (Moderate to Advanced Stages)
A. Core Decompression :
-
A small drill hole is made into the femoral head to relieve pressure and stimulate new blood vessel growth. Suitable for early AVN before bone collapse.
B. Bone Grafting or Stem Cell Augmentation :
-
Healthy bone tissue or stem cells are used to replace dead bone and restore blood flow to the hip.
C. Total Hip Replacement (THR) :
-
When the femoral head collapses or arthritis has developed, robotic total hip replacement becomes the best option.
-
With robotic precision, Dr Kaushik Patel ensures ideal implant placement, restoring smooth movement and long-term joint stability.
