Chronic nonunion of sternal fractures, up until now, has been treated by osteosynthetic plating with or without autologous bone grafting. A new technique is described involving the use of bone morphogenic protein to stimulate bone growth at the fracture site, thereby eliminating the need for bone grafting.
迄今为止，胸骨骨折的慢性骨不连一直通过使用或不使用自体骨移植的接骨板固定术来治疗。本文描述了一种新技术，该技术涉及使用骨形态发生蛋白刺激骨折部位的骨生长，从而无需进行骨移植。
