Q

Fracture healing stages

A
  • stage 1
    Hematoma (collection of clotted blood)
  • stage 2
    soft callus = fibrocartilage and fibrous connective tissue form around the break with new blood vessel formation
  • Stage 3
    Harm callus =
    Bone tissue replaces soft callus
  • Stage 4
    remodelling
    = reshaping hard callus to original bone shape
