Disturbed or delayed healing remains one of the most serious fracture-related complications, despite bone capacity for internal regeneration and reabsorption. Considerable progress in the understanding and treatment of fractures has been noted. The aim of our study was to evaluate treatment outcome in patients (smokers and non-smokers) with post-traumatic pseudoarthrosis.
