A cross-sectional schematic of a long bone demonstrates the early stage of fracture healing with a transverse break surrounded by a red fracture hematoma and ingrowing blood vessels. Cortical bone encases cancellous (trabecular) bone and marrow, while the periosteal region is disrupted at the fracture site. In the hierarchy of the musculoskeletal system, this depicts bone tissue within an organ. In orthopedics and physiology, the hematoma initiates inflammation, delivers cells and signaling factors, and provides a provisional scaffold for subsequent soft callus formation.
