Molecular pathogenesis of fracture nonunion

Fracture nonunion, a serious bone fracture complication, remains a challenge in clinical practice. Although the molecular pathogenesis of nonunion remains unclear, a better understanding may provide better approaches for its prevention, diagnosis and treatment at the molecular level. This review tries to summarise the progress made in studies of the pathogenesis of fracture nonunion. We discuss the evidence supporting the concept that the...
