Humoral factors enhance fracture-healing and callus formation in patients with traumatic brain injury.
BACKGROUND Scientific evidence is mounting for an association between traumatic brain injury and enhanced osteogenesis. The aim of this study was to correlate the in vitro osteoinductive potential of serum with the features of fracture-healing and the extent of brain damage in patients with severe traumatic brain injury and bone fracture. METHODS Patients with a long-bone fracture and a traum...
متن کاملClosed head experimental traumatic brain injury increases size and bone volume of callus in mice with concomitant tibial fracture
Concomitant traumatic brain injury (TBI) and long bone fracture are commonly observed in multitrauma and polytrauma. Despite clinical observations of enhanced bone healing in patients with TBI, the relationship between TBI and fracture healing remains poorly understood, with clinical data limited by the presence of several confounding variables. Here we developed a novel trauma model featuring ...
متن کاملA computational technique to measure fracture callus in radiographs.
Callus formation occurs in the presence of secondary bone healing and has relevance to the fracture's mechanical environment. An objective image processing algorithm was developed to standardize the quantitative measurement of periosteal callus area in plain radiographs of long bone fractures. Algorithm accuracy and sensitivity were evaluated using surrogate models. For algorithm validation, ca...
متن کاملRadial nerve entrapment in a humeral fracture callus.
A patient with a radial nerve palsy which persisted nine months after a diaphyseal fracture of the humerus was referred to our department. Radiographs and ultrasound examination showed that the radial nerve was transected and partially entrapped in the fracture callus. This double injury was confirmed and was repaired during subsequent surgical treatment. We report this rare case of combined pr...
متن کاملAutomated measurement of fracture callus in radiographs using portable software.
The development of software applications that assist the radiographic evaluation of fracture healing could advance clinical diagnosis and expedite the identification of effective treatment strategies. A radiographic feature regularly used as an outcome measure for basic and clinical fracture healing research is new bone growth, or fracture callus. In this study, we developed OrthoRead, a portab...
