The most important factor affecting fracture healing is

An important factor affecting fracture healing is blood supply.

Adequate blood supply can bring oxygen, nutrients and various cytokines to the fracture end, which is the basis of fracture healing. If blood supply is damaged or insufficient, fracture healing process will be seriously affected, and delayed healing or even non-union may occur. For example, some severe open fractures may lead to local major vascular damage, which greatly affects blood supply. If the periosteum and other tissues are excessively stripped during surgery, it may destroy the local blood supply and is not conducive to the smooth healing of fractures. Therefore, unnecessary interference with blood supply should be minimized during surgery, and more minimally invasive techniques and methods should be adopted. It is

very important to evaluate and adjust the patient's physical condition before surgery, and actively treat the underlying diseases to improve blood supply conditions.
