THE RELEVANCE OF THE REFRACTURE PROBLEM: RISK FACTORS AND MECHANISMS OF IMPAIRED CONSOLIDATION

Abstract:

In the context of studying the factors contributing to the violation of bone consolidation, special attention is paid to the role of age characteristics and the localization of the fracture. As can be seen from the results, primary trauma in children, especially in the age group where active growth of bone tissue occurs, may have its own specific features in terms of reparative processes. Repeated fractures (refractures) at a younger age, as this study has shown, most often occur in boys, which may be associated with greater physical activity and a tendency towards risky behavior. Formation of the primary bone callus, which is a key stage of healing, may be disrupted if reposition is delayed or inadequate treatment is provided, which creates the prerequisites for further complications correct.
