Injury Jan 11, 2021
Hernigou P, Housset V, Dubory A, et al. - This study was undertaken to investigate the hypothesis that the early injection of bone marrow concentrate would be useful in these fractures. Researchers examined a series of 231 individuals who had received early percutaneous implantation of bone marrow concentrate to treat open fractures ( with a gap less than 10 mm) that were Gustilo-Anderson Type II or III. The results indicated that for early grafting, bone marrow concentrate in open fractures with the limited gap was efficient for healing while decreasing infection.
