摘要
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) surgery is usually performed in patients with trauma or old-aged osteoarthritis. There has been a recent increase in younger patients presenting with avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip requiring replacement arthroplasty. Despite being from a younger age group, these patients may present with multiple comorbidities. We describe one such case of Cushing's syndrome with AVN in a young patient with primary adrenal insufficiency, secondary hypothyroidism, and secondary hypogonadism on replacement therapy status post-transsphenoidal pituitary surgery and bilateral adrenalectomy, currently posted for total hip replacement (THR) surgery.
