Known laboratory abnormalities and potential targets for the conservative treatment of avascular osteonecrosis
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Avascular osteonecrosis (AON) is a common condition that most often affects people of working age (20–60 years). The disease leads to rapid destruction and collapse of the subchondral bone with subsequent development of secondary osteoarthritis of the affected joint. The current data on laboratory abnormalities in AON are presented. Biomarkers directly related to the development and progression of AON are described in detail. Ideas for future research are formulated to improve the detection and treatment of the disease.
