Question

The granulation of tissues around the site of fracture is called
a) nodule
b) papilla
c) rudiment
d) callus

Answer 1

The Granulation of tissues at the fracture site is called callus formation.

The fibroblasts inside the granulation of tissues get developed into chondroblasts which then gets formed into Hyaline Cartilage.

These two new tissues grow bigger in size till they unite. This process culminates the formation of new tissue called the fracture callus.

The formation of callus peaks at the 14th day and then the fracture is finally bridged.
