Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head (ONFH) is a refractory disease of orthopedics, and its incidence is gradually increasing. Often due to lack of timely intervention, the femoral head collapses, eventually causing hip pain and difficulty in activities. At present, the treatment of hip preservation after the collapse of osteonecrosis of the femoral head has received everyone's attention, but many hip-preserving measures are controversial in terms of efficacy and indications. Needle-knife therapy is a kind of hip-protection therapy with low risk, small trauma, bleeding, and less and shorter treatments. This article reviews the literatures related to needle-knife therapy for osteonecrosis of the femoral head, and summarizes the clinical treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head based on needle-knife, and prospects for its research.
