Approach to fractures

2. What is the first layer of bone at the epiphyseal end?
3. What is a placed used to prevent collapse in fracture patterns which are unstable under compressive forces called?
5. Which non-viable non-union is it when there is failed reparative response progressing to a resorptive response?
6. Which type of fracture is caused by torsion?
7. Which non-viable non-union is it when there is no living bone tissue at either fracture end?
8. Which union is it when the fracture has healed but with abnormal anatomical alignment?
13. Which views are important in bone fractures?
14. Which type of fracture is caused by compression/shearing?
16. Which type of healing happens when bone ends are <0.8mm apart?
17. Which non-viable non-union is it when there is a gap at the fracture site, too large to be bridged?
18. Which type of fracture is caused by distraction/tension?
19. Which type of healing can happen when bone ends are <0.01mm apart?
21. What is the name for more than 2 fragments of a fracture?
22. Which repair method is relatively inexpensive but only able to neutralise bending forces?

1. What is a plate used to overcome forces applied at the fracture site during healing called?
4. Which viable non-union has a large callus, retaining blood supply caused by excessive motion?
9. What produce extracellular matrix?
10. Which viable non-union has minimal callus and a blood supply but the biological response is inadequate?
11. Which union is when the fracture is taking longer to heal than expected but will go on to heal?
12. What is the union what the fracture is not healing and will require intervention?
15. Which non-viable non-union is it when there is sequestrum preventing healing?
20. Which type of fractures in the Gustilo-Anderson classification used for?
