Avascular necrosis of bone following short-term dexamethasone therapy for brain edema. Case report.

A Fast, M Alon, S Weiss, F R Zer-Aviv.   

Abstract

The authors present a case of avascular necrosis of both femoral and humeral heads which developed after short-term steroid treatment for brain edema. A vascular necrosis of bone may develop after short-term as well as after maintenance steroid therapy. Early diagnosis with bone scanning and management may in some cases prevent joint destruction.
