Osteonecrosis is a condition that develops when the bones lose
their blood supply. This causes them to die and eventually
collapse, resulting in pain and arthritis. Osteonecrosis can
occur in one or several bones and is most common in the hip or
upper leg. As Osteonecrosis is a disease of the bone cells it
has been shown that implanting bone marrow containing stem cells
into the effected area can have a beneficial impact on the
condition. Stem cells are unspecialised cells that have the
ability to self-generate into new healthy specialised cells,
replacing the ones that have died or are damaged. Also known as
Avascular Necrosis Stem Cell Therapy.
