The Effect of Smoking on Posttraumatic Pseudoarthrosis Healing after Internal Stabilization, Treated with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP).

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.
