Abstract

Post‑surgical fracture nonunion (PSFN) represents the failure to achieve cortical continuity at radiological examination after an orthopedic operation, which causes a considerable disease burden in patients with fractures. As one of the traditional treatment modalities, surgical therapy is associated with a high fracture union rate; however, post‑surgical complications are not negligible. Therefore, less invasive therapies are needed to improve the prognosis of patients with PSFN. Extracorporeal shock wave treatment (ESWT) is a noninvasive method that presents a similar efficacy profile and favorable safety profile compared with surgical treatment. However, the application and detailed mechanism of ESWT in patients with PSFN remain unclear. The present review focuses on the mechanism, efficacy, safety and prognostic factors of ESWT in patients with PSFN, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for its application and improve the prognosis of these patients.
