BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to evaluate whether apolipoprotein gene polymorphisms confer susceptibility to osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). METHODS: The relevant literature was screened from databases of Pubmed, Embase, Wanfang, Weipu and China National Knowledge Internet (CNKI) until May, 2017. In addition, odds ratio (OR) and its corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) were used as a measure of effect size for calculating effect size. RESULTS: Totally, six case-control studies were included in this meta-analysis. It revealed that ApoB-C7623T polymorphism frequency was increased in ONFH group than in control group under three genetic models, including allele model (T vs. C, OR = 4.5149, 95% CI: 1.6968-12.0134); additive model (TC vs. CC, OR = 6.2515, 95% CI: 2.0939-18.6640); and dominant model (TT + TC vs. CC, OR = 5.4998, 95% CI: 1.9246-15.7163). In addition, the increased risk of ONFH were related to ApoA1-rs1799837 polymorphism under additive model (AA vs. GG, OR = 1.4175, 95% CI: 1.0522-1.9096) and recessive model (AA vs. GG + AG, OR = 1.7727, 95% CI: 1.3399-2.3452). However, four ApoB rs1042031, rs693, 3'-VNTR and G12619A polymorphisms under the all genetic models were not associated with susceptibility to ONFH. CONCLUSION: The T allele and TC genotype of ApoB-C7623T and AA genotype of ApoA1-rs1799837 may contribute to increase the risk of ONFH.
