| Core Tip |
Non-union of tibial fractures remains a significant challenge in orthopaedic trauma practice, often associated with prolonged morbidity and a substantial economic burden on healthcare systems. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) have emerged as a promising biological agent in fracture healing; however, their use in clinical practice, either alone or in combination with bone grafting techniques, remains variable and sometimes controversial due to cost-effectiveness and clinical outcomes. Our study directly compares the outcomes of BMP use alone vs in combination with autologous bone grafts in managing tibial non-unions. This manuscript contributes provides valuable insights that can aid clinical decision-making, particularly in resource-limited settings where the optimal use of biologics must be balanced against surgical and economic factors. |
