Question 14

Fracture Healing

Answer 14

1. Haematoma Formation - blood vessels nearby and in periostaeum are lacerated. Inflammatory response
2. Fibrinocartilaginous Callus Formation - new capillaries form in granulation, fibroblasts form periosteum and endosteum and red bone marrow form a soft callus
3. Bony Callus Formation - conversion of fibrinocartilaginous callus to bony callus. Becomes spongy bone
4. Remodelling - dead portions are removed and spongy bone converted to compact bone
