The healing of tibiofibular fracture generally includes the stages of hematoma formation, fibrous bone scab formation, bony bone scab formation, and bone scab remodeling or remodeling.
1. Hematoma formation: hematoma is formed by massive local bleeding after fracture, and the hematoma coagulates after a few hours, and a mild inflammatory reaction may also occur. As the fracture is accompanied by vascular rupture, in the early stage of fracture, the necrosis of bone marrow tissue can often be seen, and the bone cortex can also be necrotic, if the necrotic foci are small, they can be absorbed, if they are large, they can form free dead bone fragments.
2. Fibrous bone scab formation: 2~3 days after the fracture, the hematoma begins to be replaced by granulation tissue and mechanization, followed by fibrosis to form fibrous bone scab. 1 week later, the proliferation of granulation tissue and fibrous tissue can further form hyaline cartilage.
3. Osteoid formation: the fibrous bone scab differentiates into osteoblasts to form osteoid tissue, after which calcium salts are deposited to form woven bone. In addition, the cartilage tissue in the fibrous bone scab can also form bony bone scab after chondrogenesis.
4. Scab remodeling or remodeling: In order to adapt to the stresses that the bone is subjected to when it moves, woven bone is further remodeled into mature lamellar bone. The remodeling is accomplished in coordination with bone resorption by osteoclasts and new bone formation by osteoblasts.
For tibiofibular fracture, you should go to the relevant departments of regular hospitals and be treated under the guidance of professional physicians to avoid delaying the condition. After treatment, you should also follow the doctor’s instructions and do a good job of recovery.
