As a 25-year-old resident of Son La, Mr. Hai had a penchant for consuming large amounts of alcohol. This led to blood vessel blockage and necrosis of the femoral heads on both sides, leaving him with severe pain and limited mobility in his hips. Despite taking medication, the pain persisted until he sought treatment at Tam Anh General Hospital in Hanoi.
Upon evaluation by Dr. Nguyen Quang Ton Quyen, it was recommended that Mr. Hai undergo bilateral hip replacement surgery due to end-stage necrosis of the femoral head. This condition is often caused by factors such as alcohol abuse, tobacco use, or certain medications and can lead to severe joint damage if left untreated.
Dr. Quyen explained that joint replacement surgery, while effective, carries some risks, especially for younger patients like Mr. Hai. However, using advanced techniques like the Superpath incision can help reduce pain, speed up recovery, and minimize the risk of complications.
After the successful surgery, Mr. Hai experienced significant improvement in his mobility and pain levels. With proper post-operative care and rehabilitation, he was able to walk without crutches and resume his daily activities within a few weeks.
In conclusion, early intervention and proper lifestyle choices can help prevent conditions like femoral head necrosis from occurring in the first place. For patients who have already developed this condition, hip replacement surgery may be necessary to alleviate chronic pain and restore normal joint function.
