title: [Disorders of fracture and osteotomy healing. An analysis of aseptic complications].
abstract: The analysis of aseptic complications of bone healing shows that after conservative treatment failures are based mainly on an inadequate indication (37 of 68 patients). An operative procedure would have been better in these cases. Insufficient and recurrent reductions (11 of 68 patients) as well as over-extension with diastasis (9 patients) were less frequent. Osteosyntheses without bone healing were very frequent after failures in the operative technique (92 of 219 patients) and when bone defects (56 patients) remained. It is generally noticed that there is a relatively small number of bone healing problems following intramedullary nailing (13 patients) compared with plate osteosynthesis (119 patients). Both techniques are separately analyzed concerning the kinds of complications. Therapeutic priorities for the treatment of fractures are derivated.
