Beneficial Effect of Autologous Transplantation of Endothelial Progenitor Cells on Steroid-Induced Femoral Head Osteonecrosis in Rabbits
Femoral head osteonecrosis (ON) is a serious complication of steroid administration. We examined whether implantation of autologous bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) can augment neovascularization and bone regeneration in steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Forty...
