Avascular necrosis (AVN), also called osteonecrosis or bone infarction, is the death of bone tissue due to interruption of the blood supply at the femoral head. Avascular necrosis may develop into joint pain, seriously hindering the patients’ ability to move. The Avascular necrosis may also lead to fracture, or joint dislocations, and hence mandating joint Arthroplasties with prosthetic hip for treatment.
The EMT AVN system is designed to be used to successfully deal with stage I and II Avascular Necrosis. The EMT core decompression kit is a single-use system used to efficiently facilitate the core decompression of the patient.
