Arthroscopically Assisted Humeral Head Decompression for Avascular Necrosis: Lateral Cortical Perforation Technique

Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the humeral head is debilitating condition that, when left untreated, can progress to humeral head collapse and end-stage arthritis of the glenohumeral joint. Core decompression is widely regarded as a first-line surgical treatment for early-stage AVN, and when performed...

description Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the humeral head is debilitating condition that, when left untreated, can progress to humeral head collapse and end-stage arthritis of the glenohumeral joint. Core decompression is widely regarded as a first-line surgical treatment for early-stage AVN, and when performed on the appropriate patient, core decompression is an effective treatment for improving symptoms and preventing progression and humeral head collapse. This article discusses operative indications and presents a relatively simple and effective arthroscopic method for core decompression of humeral head avascular necrosis.
