The document discusses wound healing and fracture healing. It describes the three phases of cutaneous wound healing - inflammation, proliferation, and maturation. It also discusses primary and secondary wound healing. Fracture healing involves inflammatory, reparative, and remodeling phases, with hematoma formation, granulation tissue growth, and callus formation bridging the fracture site over time. Factors like age, nutrition, disease states, hormones and bone type can influence healing. Complications may arise from deficient or excessive scar formation or contractures.

Dr.CSBR.Prasad, M.D. v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Cutaneous Wound Healing Divided into three phases:
1. Inflammation 2. Proliferation & 3. Maturation v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Cutaneous Wound Healing Inflammation: Platelet adhesion and aggregation and the formation of a clot in the surface of the wound, leading to inflammation Proliferative phase there is formation of granulation tissue, proliferation and migration of connective tissue cells, and re- epithelialization of the wound surface Maturation involves ECM deposition, tissue remodeling, and wound contraction v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Healing by primary union or by FIRST INTENTION Death of a limited number of epithelial and connective tissue cells Minimal disruption of epithelial basement membrane continuity Formation of a relatively thin scar v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Healing by primary union or by FIRST INTENTION Wounds with opposed edges Clean / sterile wounds Example: Surgical incision v3-CSBRP-May-2012 v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Healing by secondary union or by SECOND INTENTION Large defects cause extensive loss of cells and tissue More intense inflammatory reactions Formation of abundant granulation tissue Extensive collagen deposition Formation of a big scars Contractures v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Healing by secondary union or by SECOND INTENTION Wounds with unopposed margins Gaps in tissue due to substantial loss Infection / foreign bodies Examples: Crush injury Infected wounds Burns v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Crush injury v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Crush injury and skin grafting v3-CSBRP-May-2012 v3-CSBRP-May-2012 v3-CSBRP-May-2012 v3-CSBRP-May-2012
However, the basic mechanisms of healing by primary (first intention) and secondary (second intention) union are similar v3-CSBRP-May-2012 The most distinct feature that differentiates Primay & Seconday wound healing is Wound contracture That is seen in healing by second intention v3-CSBRP-May-2012 v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Events in wound healing Blood clot formation - immediate Neutrophil migration 24hours Proliferation of epithelia at the edge 24-48hrs Deposition of BM 24-48hrs Scab formation 24 hrs Macrophage entry 3 rd day Granulation tissue formation 5 th day Collagen deposition 5 th day two weeks Wound strengthening may take months v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Growth Factors and Cytokines Affecting Various Steps in Wound Healing Action Factors Fibroblast migration / replication PDGF, EGF, FGF, TGF-, TNF, IL-1 Keratinocyte replication HB-EGF, FGF-7, HGF Angiogenesis VEGF, Angiopoietins, FGF Collagen synthesis TGF-, PDGF Collagenase secretion PDGF, FGF, TNF; TGF- inhibits Monocyte chemotaxis Chemokines, TNF, PDGF, FGF, TGF- v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Blood clot Wounding causes the rapid activation of coagulation pathways Formation of a blood clot on the wound surface Clot contains entapped red cells, the clot contains fibrin, fibronectin, and complement components The clot serves to stop bleeding and also as a scaffold for migrating cells, which are attracted by growth factors, cytokines and chemokines released into the area Dehydration occurs at the external surface of the clot, forming a scab that covers the wound v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Neutrophils Within 24 hours, neutrophils appear at the margins of the incision They release proteolytic enzymes that clean out debris and invading bacteria
v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Formation of Granulation Tissue The hallmark of tissue repair: Formation of granulation tissue Granulation tissue consists of: proliferating Fibroblasts and vascular endothelial cells which occurs in the first 24 to 72 hours of the repair process The term derives from its pink, soft, granular appearance on the surface of wounds Characteristic histologic feature : Angiogenesis and the proliferation of fibroblasts
v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Formation of Granulation Tissue These new vessels are leaky, allowing the passage of plasma proteins and fluid into the extravascular space Granulation tissue progressively invades the incision space By 5 to 7 days, granulation tissue fills the wound area and neovascularization is maximal v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Granulation tissue v3-CSBRP-May-2012 v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Granulation tissue v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Omphalocele covered by granulation tissue v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Accumulation of collagen 2 nd week Reduced number of leucocytes, edema Regression of vascular channels Accumulation of collagen Progressive blanching

When sutures may be removed? At the end of 1 st week 10% of strength of unwounded skin By 3 rd month 70-80% of strength of unwounded skin v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Factors influencing wound healing Systemic factors Nutrition Metabolic status Circulatory status Hormones
Local factors Infections Foreign bodies Mechanical factors Size / Location v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Complications of cutaneous wound healing May arise from abnormalities in basic components of repair process: 1. Deficient scar formation 2. Excessive of repair components 3. Contractures v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Complications of cutaneous wound healing 1.

Deficient scar formation 2. Excessive of repair components 3. Contractures Exaggeration of contracture results in deformities Eg: After serious burns Contractures prone areas: Palms Soles Anterior thorax v3-CSBRP-May-2012 v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Wound Healing Healing of Fracture v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Fracture A fracture is a discontinuity of bone usually due to trauma It's often associated with soft tissue injury (e.g. hemorrhage, necrosis, tearing of muscle, tendon, ligaments, nerves and vessels)
v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Healing of Fracture There are three processes involved in the healing of fractures: Inflammatory reparative and remodelling phases 6 stages: the hematoma stage inflammatory stage formation of granulation tissue soft callus 'hard' callus, and remodelling
v3-CSBRP-May-2012 or v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Hematoma Stage: Hemorrhage, clot formation - within hours This picture shows a sagittal section of a fractured humerous. It is clear this is recent fracture because there is a large haemtoma and no evidence of primary callus fomation v3-CSBRP-May-2012 v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Inflammatory Stage: Begins within 48 hours, inflammatory cells appear. Organization and resorption of clot. v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Granulation Tissue: From 2 - 12 days. Presence of mesenchymal cells, fibroblasts, new capillaries Soft Callus: One week to several months. Callus grows and bridges the fracture site; cartilage and trabelcular bone laid down.
v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Hard Callus: One week to several months. When callus has sealed the bone ends. Trabecular bone. v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Remodelling: Continues for several months. Reorganization of bone; original cortex restored Fracture healing rates are: Faster in the young than the old Slower in the lower limb than the upper limb Faster in spongy bone than compact bone
v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Systemic Factors Affecting Fracture Healing Age: Young patients heal rapidly and have a remarkable ability to remodel and correct angulation deformities. These abilities decrease once skeletal maturity is reached Nutrition: A substantial amount of energy is needed for fracture healing to occur. An adequate metabolic stage with sufficient carbohydrates and protein is necessary Systemic Diseases: Diseases like osteoporosis, diabetes, and those causing an immunocompromised state will likely delay healing. Illnesses like Marfans syndrome and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome cause abnormal musculoskeletal healing Hormones: Thyroid hormone, growth hormone, calcitonin, and others play significant roles in bone healing. Corticosteroids impede healing through many mechanisms v3-CSBRP-May-2012 Local Variables Affecting Fracture Healing Type of bone: Cancellous (spongy) bone fractures are usually more stable, involve greater surface areas, and have a better blood supply than do cortical (compact) bone fractures. Cancellous bone heals faster than cortical bone. Degree of Trauma: The more extensive the injury to bone and surrounding soft tissue, the poorer the outcome. Mild contusions with local bone trauma will heal easily, whereas severely comminuted injuries with extensive soft tissue damage heal poorly. Vascular Injury: Inadequate blood supply impairs healing. Especially vulnerable areas are the femoral head, talus, and scaphoid bones. Degree of Immobilization: The fracture site must be immobilized for vascular ingrowth and bone healing to occur. Repeated disruptions of repair tissue, especially to areas with marginal blood supply or heavy soft tissue damage, will impair healing. Intraarticular Fractures: These fractures communicate with synovial fluid, which contains collagenases that retard bone healing. Joint movement will cause the fracture fragments to more, further impairing union. When intraarticular fractures are comminuted, the fragments tend to float apart owing to loss of soft tissue support. Separation of Bone Ends: Normal apposition of fracture fragments is needed for union to occur. Inadequate reduction, excessive traction, or interposition of soft tissue will prevent healing. Infection: Infections cause necrosis and edema, take energy away from the healing process, and may increase the mobility of the fracture site. Local Pathology: Any disease process that weakens the musculoskeletal tissue, like osteoporosis or osteomalacia, may impair union.
