Study Summary

Although uncommon in the general pediatric population, osteonecrosis (ON) is prevalent in children and adolescents with cancer, particularly among those that have had chronic exposure to glucocorticoids and among those having undergone allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Patients with hematologic disease are also at risk for developing ON. Hip Core Decompression (HCD) is a widely used surgical procedure with several studies reporting positive results; however, most are subject to criticism because of the limited sample size or the absence of appropriate functional outcome measures. The objective of this pilot study is to observe and collect information on several functional outcome measures and assess if Hip Core Decompression (HCD) potentially improves functional outcomes in children, adolescents and young adults with osteonecrosis. PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: * To describe functional outcomes of children, adolescents, and young adults with osteonecrosis of the femoral head following hip core decompression surgery. Parameters assessed will include pain, functional mobility, endurance, quality of life, and gait patterns pre-operatively and post-operatively over time.
