Q

Where do all bones come from developmentally and by either what way?

A

Developmentally all bones come from mesenchyme by either:

Q

What happens after a fracture?

A
  • After fracture a hematoma forms
  • New vessels grow then and then a jelly matrix is formed called the soft callus
  • Soft callus is replaced by bony callus
  • Bony callus is remodeled to form a permanent patch
