DELAYED UNIONS OF THE TIBIA

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2006
Delayed union of the tibia represents a diverse group of clinical problems that can at times be challenging for even the most experienced surgeon to treat.

Delayed Union in Pediatric Forearm Fractures

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 2012
The aim of this study was to assess the predictive factors of delayed union in pediatric forearm fractures. Few previous reports have approached this complication, but contrary to these studies we excluded cases with known pathogenic factors and included in the sample cases treated with conservative methods.This is a case-control study of all pediatric

Concepts of Fracture Union, Delayed Union, and Nonunion

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1998
Laboratory and clinical scientists and practicing clinicians need definitions of union, delayed union, and nonunion. Fracture union is a gradual process, so quantitative measures are the most meaningful. However, end point definitions also are useful, but they need empirical validation.

Principles of Bone Grafting: Non-union, Delayed Union

Surgery (Oxford), 2003
Abstract Autologous bone grafts or autografts (i.e. grafts taken from the patient's own bone) have been used to treat fracture non-unions and occasionally to treat acute fractures. Traditionally, autologous bone is harvested from the iliac crest through a generous, open incision. This can result in significant pain and morbidity.

Compartment syndrome delays tibial union

Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1987
There has been no previous investigation into the association between compartment syndrome and delayed or nonunion of the tibia following fracture. To establish whether such an association might exist, a retrospective survey of the results of the treatment of closed and Grade I tibial fractures complicated by compartment syndrome was undertaken.

Cartilage Extracts in the Treatment of Delayed Union

Archives of Surgery, 1968
EXPERIENCE has shown that cartilage and its extracts have a favorable influence on soft tissue healing. 1 Trials with similar products in the local treatment of experimental bone defects are associated with such complications as abscess formations. 2 Nevertheless, in those cases where no untoward local reaction is observed, bone healing seems somewhat ...
