“…Bone repair is a complex process of biological events regulated by specific cells, the extracellular matrix, distinct growth factors and a variety of hormones [92][93][94][95][96][97][98][99][100]. Despite the increased intrinsic capacity of bone to restore fracture healing without scar formation, non-union may still occur in 5-10% of the cases [101].…”

“…Moreover, rhBMPs provided comparable results to ABG treatment [14,48,54] with shorter operative time, reduced operative blood loss, and avoiding donor site morbidity [14,36]. Regarding safety, comparative studies did not show a higher complication rate, with some adverse events reported only in 3 non-comparative papers [40,44,52] describing cases of heterotopic ossification [40,44] or tibiofibular synostosis [52].…”

“…On the other hand, this literature research also revealed that most of the clinical findings are based on case reports or case series with small patient populations, characterized by different delivery approaches, anatomical locations, bone pathologies and dosages, which makes it difficult to draw any final conclusion about the real potential of BMPs therapy and the best protocol they can be applied to [43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59]. Therefore, further research in this direction is needed.…”

“…The local delivery of growth factors, such as basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), to fracture sites is one of the treatment options for accelerating fracture healing . bFGF is expressed in periosteum during mesenchymal cell proliferation and chondrogenesis, and stimulates the growth of many cell types, including osteoblasts and chrondrocytes .…”
