Nonunion refers to the failure of a fractured bone to heal properly despite appropriate treatment.

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

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.

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.

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