Avascular Necrosis. In adolescents and young adults with avascular necrosis (AVN), the blood supply to the hip joint is interrupted and the bone begins to die. Learn more about Avascular Necrosis.
Avascular necrosis (AVN), also called osteonecrosis, aseptic necrosis, or ischemic bone necrosis, is a condition that occurs when there is loss of blood to the bone. Because bone is living tissue that requires blood, an interruption to the blood supply causes bone to die. If not stopped, this process eventually causes the bone to collapse.
