Avascular Necrosis refers to a condition that affects the upper half of the leg, especially the femoral head. The femoral head receives less amount of blood supply. As bone is a living tissue, so when the blood supply gets reduced by a sufficient extent, it results in the bone dying out.

The blood vessels are elastic tubules controlled by valves through which blood flows. Depending on the organ and the distance from the heart, these vessels should be of a certain thickness to ensure proper blood supply, this maintains a constant normal pressure of the blood flow. In this condition, the blood vessels are narrowed, which results in reduced blood supply, affecting optimal function.

Causes:

With age, the elasticity of these vessels reduce and therefore blood flow a...more
