Avascular necrosis in systemic lupus erythematosus: total hip replacement in a patient with mutation in clotting factor V (Leiden) gene, clinical observation

Abstract

The article provides a description of the systemic lupus erythematosus patient with multiple avascular bone necrosis (ABN), homozygous mutation in clotting factor V (Leiden) gene, who successfully underwent the total hip replacement. The role of high doses of glucocorticoids and coagulation disorders, in particular the homozygous mutation in factor V (Leiden) gene, in the development of ABN is discussed.
