| Abstract | The transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy described by Sugioka is used to preserve the femoral head and to prevent secondary osteoarthritis in young patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Several Japanese studies have shown favourable results, but European and American studies were disappointing. An explanation for these outcomes may be that the original protocol was not followed exactly. The objective of our study was to investigate this trans-trochanteric rotational osteotomy in Caucasian patients with osteonecrosis in which we followed the original method of Sugioka as closely as possible, including a 6-month period of non-weight bearing. We included 26 hips in 22 consecutive patients who were followed up for 8.7 (range 6.6-10) years. At review, 17 hips had been converted to total hip arthroplasty. The clinical survival rate was 56% after 7 years (95% CI 36-76%). The radiological survival rate was 54% after one year (95% CI 35-73%). Even after excluding the failures due to problems with osteosynthesis and infection, the results were not satisfactory and the osteoarthritic process was not delayed. Based on our results, we cannot recommend this technique as an alternative for total hip arthroplasty in Caucasians. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
