Avascular Necrosis
Avascular necrosis, also called osteonecrosis, is a condition in which bone death occurs because of inadequate blood supply to it. Lack of blood flow may occur when there is a fracture in the bone or a joint dislocation that may damage nearby blood vessels.
Labral Tears of the Hip
A hip labral tear is an injury to the labrum, the cartilage that surrounds the outside rim of your hip joint socket.The hip joint is a ball and socket joint in which the head of the femur is the ball and the pelvic acetabulum forms the socket.
