The role of hypertrophic chondrocytes in fracture healing
Fracture healing is a multifactorial process. Most fractures are healed by the process of endochondral ossification, involving the formation of a cartilaginous soft callus and the process of cartilage-tobone transition.

Bony Union in Maxilla and Mandible Free Flap Reconstruction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Bony nonunion is an important complication in head and neck reconstruction, but its definition, incidence, and treatment are not well‐reported. Methods MEDLINE, Embase, CENTRAL, and Web of Science were searched from October 1st, 1990 to January 6th, 2025 for studies reporting bony union for maxilla or mandible reconstruction with ...
