Study Notes
Bone Healing Mechanism and Phases: A Comprehensive Overview
- Bone healing process involves the release of growth factors, leading to increased blood flow at fracture sites, peaking at two weeks post-fracture.
- Mechanical stability is crucial for re-vascularization and bone healing, as proper healing depends on a balance between micromovements, mechanical load, and bone response.
- Bone growth is stimulated by loading, and proper positioning of fractured bones is critical for healing.
- Inadequate stabilization can lead to mechanical deformations preventing bone formation, while excessive stabilization reduces callus formation.
- There are two mechanisms of bone healing: direct (no callus, no cartilage formation) and indirect (intermediate callus formation).
- Direct mechanism requires absolute stability, leading to osteoblast-mediated direct formation of osteons.
- Indirect mechanism involves minimal movements between bone ends, leading to periosteal reaction, medullary callus formation, and endochondral ossification.
- The phases of bone callus formation include inflammation and hematoma formation, soft callus formation, calcification and hardening of the callus, and remodeling of the callus.
- The hematoma, formed within the first 20 days, contains growth factors that stimulate vessel growth and cell migration towards the fracture site.
- The conjunction callus phase, occurring from day 20 to 30, involves the development of fibrous callus, cartilage metaplasia, and ossification.
- The calcification and repairing phase includes the development of periosteal and intramedullary callus, stimulated by mechanical and chemical factors.
- The healing process involves the transformation of cartilage to woven bone by osteoblasts, leading to the formation of callus, which can be observed in radiological images of fractures.
