Genetic polymorphisms of NOS2 and predisposition to fracture non-union: A case control study based on Han Chinese population. [PDF]
A non-union, especially atrophic non-unions, is a permanent failure of healing following a fracture and can be difficult to treat. Approximately 5-10% of fractures will result in a non-union during the healing process.
