Summary

As we have previously reported, the primary cause of hip OA with accompanying joint pain might be bone alterations which can be microfracture. In order to prove it, it is planned that conservative treatment will be performed on the hip OA patients with accompanying joint pain for the first year. For the second year, if the patients still have joint pain, they will do non-weght bearing walk.
