Abstract
Direct electrostimulation with bipolar rectangular pulse currents was used as a complementary measure on 13 patients with pseudoarthrosis and delayed healing of fractures. In ten cases now completed, evidence was produced to accelerated ossification and transformation of autologous spongiosa, which cut consolidation periods by several months. Implantable mini-stimulators have yielded good clinical results.
