- Preoperative measurement. [ Time Frame: one day before surgery ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Thigh circumference measurements made with anthropometric metal tape and a Permanent Marker, based in bone parameters in supine position. Using as reference the bony protuberance of the trochanter, the first measurement will be taken 5 (five) cm below this point and 5 (five) cm above the patella, and betwin this two points will be made one mark at the midpoint between them. After the measurement, a Magnetic Resonance of the thighs is made.
- Thighs circumference measurement [ Time Frame: 7th postoperative day ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Thigh circumference measurements made with anthropometric metal tape and a Permanent Marker, based in bone parameters in supine position. Using as reference the bony protuberance of the trochanter, the first mesurement will be taken 5 (five) cm below this point and 5 (five) cm above the patella, and betwin this two points will be made one mark at the midpoint between them
- Thighs circumference measurement [ Time Frame: 9th postoperative day ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Thigh circumference measurements made with anthropometric metal tape and a Permanent Marker, based in bone parameters in supine position. Using as reference the bony protuberance of the trochanter, the first mesurement will be taken 5 (five) cm below this point and 5 (five) cm above the patella, and betwin this two points will be made one mark at the midpoint between them
- Thighs circumference measurement [ Time Frame: 14th postoperative day ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Thigh circumference measurements made with anthropometric metal tape and a Permanent Marker, based in bone parameters in supine position. Using as reference the bony protuberance of the trochanter, the first mesurement will be taken 5 (five) cm below this point and 5 (five) cm above the patella, and betwin this two points will be made one mark at the midpoint between them. After the measurement, a Magnetic Resonance of the thighs is made.
- Thighs circumference measurement [ Time Frame: 16th postoperative day ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Thigh circumference measurements made with anthropometric metal tape and a Permanent Marker, based in bone parameters in supine position. Using as reference the bony protuberance of the trochanter, the first mesurement will be taken 5 (five) cm below this point and 5 (five) cm above the patella, and betwin this two points will be made one mark at the midpoint between them.
- Thighs circumference measurement [ Time Frame: 21th postoperative day ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Thigh circumference measurements made with anthropometric metal tape and a Permanent Marker, based in bone parameters in supine position. Using as reference the bony protuberance of the trochanter, the first mesurement will be taken 5 (five) cm below this point and 5 (five) cm above the patella, and betwin this two points will be made one mark at the midpoint between them.
- Thighs circumference measurement [ Time Frame: 28th postoperative day ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Thigh circumference measurements made with anthropometric metal tape and a Permanent Marker, based in bone parameters in supine position. Using as reference the bony protuberance of the trochanter, the first mesurement will be taken 5 (five) cm below this point and 5 (five) cm above the patella, and betwin this two points will be made one mark at the midpoint between them. After the measurement, a Magnetic Resonance of the thighs is made.

Detailed Description:
Patients will be invited to participate in the study, divided into two groups, and randomized to treatment by wwww.randomization.com, where 10 patients will participate in the study group(20 legs) and 10 control group patients(20 legs). Total of 40 legs. Then, the evaluation will be performed on preoperative time, consisting of physical examination and circumferential measures. Others measurements will be taken im postoperative time and confirmed by magnetic resonance.
