ABSTRACT
As a type of aseptic osteonecrosis, femoral head avascular necrosis (AVN) is characterized by abnormal blood flow that results in osteocyte death and femoral head degradation. Trauma, alcohol abuse, corticosteroid usage, and a few underlying medical disorders are common reasons. A 46-year-old farmer who had acute femoral head damage and left hip pain is described in this case study as having undergone total hip arthroplasty (THA). The systematic plan of the physiotherapy intervention included patient education, joint restoration, pain management, prevention of complications, strengthening, proprioception, endurance, and task-oriented motor relearning activities. Over the course of four weeks, the patient demonstrated improvements in functional outcomes and pain levels, highlighting the significance of a thorough physiotherapy approach in the management of AVN following THA. For the best possible patient results, this case study emphasizes the importance of early detection, diagnosis, and a well-coordinated rehabilitation program.
