Abstract

A non-union is a fracture that fails to heal within the expected time frame and occurs in approximately 3 to 5% of all fractures. Non-union has a negative impact on mental and physical functioning and quality of life. The causes, clinical presentation and treatment for non-union differ strongly on a case-by-case basis. By presenting three cases we aim to give healthcare providers more insight into the clinical scenario of non-union. In addition, we elaborate on characteristics, etiology, diagnostics and treatment of non-union.
