Nonunion of Bones

Home  /  Nonunion of Bones
Nonunion refers to the failure of a fractured bone to heal properly despite appropriate treatment.
1
Evaluation

The orthopedic surgeon assesses the patient's medical history, conducts imaging studies, and evaluates the bone's blood supply and stability.

2
Revision Surgery

Depending on the underlying cause of nonunion, revision surgery may be necessary to realign the bone, remove dead or damaged tissue, and provide stability with implants or bone grafts.

3
Bone Stimulation

In some cases, bone stimulators or growth factors may be used to promote bone healing and encourage the formation of new bone tissue.

4
Monitoring

Regular follow-up appointments and imaging studies are necessary to monitor bone healing progress and assess the effectiveness of treatment.

Benefits of
Surgery

Treatment for nonunion aims to stimulate bone healing and restore stability to the fractured bone, reducing pain and improving function. Addressing nonunion promptly can help prevent complications such as chronic pain, joint stiffness, or deformity. Successful treatment of nonunion allows patients to regain mobility and function in the affected limb, improving quality of life.

Immobilization

Patients may use splints, casts, or braces to immobilize the affected limb during the initial healing phase.

Physical Therapy

Rehabilitation focuses on restoring range of motion, strength, and function in the affected limb.

Activity Modification

Patients may need to avoid activities that place excessive stress on the healing bone until it has fully consolidated.

Long-term Monitoring

Regular follow-up appointments with the orthopedic team are necessary to monitor bone healing progress and assess functional outcomes.
