[Progress in relationship between heritable hypercoagulable state and avascular necrosis of femoral head]
1Department of Orthopedics, the Sixth People's Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Shanghai, 200233, P.R.China.
Objective:
To review the relationship between heritable hypercoagulable state (HHCS) and avascular necrosis of femoral head (ANFH).
Methods:
The latest original articles about the relationship between HHCS and ANFH were extensively reviewed.
Results:
Several genetic mutations which could cause HHCS, such as thrombophilic factor V G1691A gene, thrombophilic factor II G20210A gene, 5, 10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T gene, plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 4G/5G, and tissue factor pathway inhibitor gene, may be genetic risks of ANFH.
Conclusion:
HHCS may be a genetic cause of ANFH. Further studies are needed to confirm the relationship between HHCS and Chinese ANFH.
