@bonemuseum: Dynamic duo alert! 🔥 Masha and Paige break down (pun intended) the science behind this shattered femur 🦴. The femur, the strongest bone in the human body 💪, doesn’t break easily—but when it does, the results can be dramatic. A comminuted fracture shatters the bone into multiple pieces, while an oblique fracture slices through the bone at an angle, making treatment especially challenging 🩺. Bone healing is an intricate process: first, the body forms a hematoma 🩸 to stabilize the break and initiate repair. From there, a soft callus begins to form, which slowly hardens into a bony callus over several weeks ⏳. Finally, the remodeling phase refines the structure, restoring strength and function 🛠️. This type of fracture is a striking example of the challenges faced by the skeletal system—and a testament to its remarkable ability to heal 🌟. Curious to learn more?
