[Connective tissue in non-union and pseudarthrosis of long bones. Part III: comparative examination of human false joints (author's transl)].
Nontreatment of far dislocated fractures of long bones is seldom, fortunately. In comparison to our animal experiments tissue samples from only one patient with similar conditions could be examined by light- and transmission electron microscopy. Microscopic findings are similar to those of animal experiments. Pathologic pseudarthrotic conditions caused by abnormal mobility can be taken as a model for observing reformation of connective tissue. In general tissue dynamics are the same as those known from the ontogeny of connective tissue. The influence of abnormal mobility to pseudarthrosis formation is discussed.
