Abstract

Limb fractures are a common disease type in clinical practice caused by incidents such as traffic accidents and work-related injuries in daily life. Most patients gradually recover after receiving internal fixation treatment, and the treatment effect is relatively significant. According to relevant surveys and studies, the probability of bone nonunion in postoperative patients is 5–10%, which is a common complication. Nonunion is a condition where the fractured bone has not healed after an extended period of time, e.g. 9 months after treatment, and there is no sign of improvement for 3 consecutive months, necessitating timely treatment. This article reviews the research progress in the treatment of nonunion in limb fractures.
