Core Decompression vs Hip Replacement for AVN
Core decompression and hip replacement are very different treatments for AVN. Core decompression is a joint-preserving option for selected early cases, while hip replacement is usually considered after collapse or arthritis.
Key Guidance
AVN stage is the most important treatment factor.
Core decompression is mainly for selected pre-collapse AVN.
Hip replacement is more relevant when collapse and arthritis are present.
