Q

With reference to the structure of bone, explain what happens when a fracture occurs and how it heals.

A

Inflammatory / Reactive stage
When the fracture first occurs a blood clot forms around the fracture within the first 24 hours, this causes a large blood clot called a hematoma to form.
Then the necrosed cells that died due to the trauma (break) release cytokines (which are chemical signals) which will start the healing process as it means specialist cells will start to work.
Fibroblasts and chondroblasts begin the granulation process where granulation tissue will replace the hematoma which takes 3-10 days. The granulation tissue is a mesh of cartilage and fibrocartilage.
Osteoclasts will also remove necrotic tissue from bone.
Reparative phase
A soft callus is formed in the granulation phase, and it fills the gaps in the fracture fragments.
After a few weeks, capillaries grow in the soft callus to improve vascularisation and help with healing.
Then osteoblasts at the periosteum lay down soft and unorganized bone that will connect the bits of bone back together. It forms almost like a capsule around the affected area. This is called woven bone.
After this, the hard callus will start to form which is about 2- to 3 weeks after the fracture occurred. This works by the osteoblasts using minerals such as calcium and phosphate to make a hard callus starting at the edges of the soft callus and moving inwards once the outer edges have been filled. The woven bone is last until all the fragments of the fracture are put together by the new bone and this takes about 3-4 months after the fracture.

Bone remodeling phase.
This process can take several years, the hard callus will become a capsule over the fracture site meaning it looks enlarged to the rest of the bone.
The osteoblasts start to rebuild the bone but they do this randomly so in the next stage the osteoclasts remodel the new bone formed.
Over time any woven bone will be made into the lamellar of the bone and the medullary canal will return also.
