La plaie se rétracte sous l'influence de cellules particulières, les myofibroblastes. En s'appauvrissant progressivement en eau et en contenant de moins en moins de vaisseaux, le tissu de granulation devient plus ferme. Il se transforme en tissu cicatriciel qui, à son tour, favorisera la rétraction cicatricielle. 1, record 2, French, - tissu%20cicatriciel

The term pseudarthrosis is often used synonymously with the term nonunion. A more limited and perhaps more accurate usage would limit use of the term pseudarthrosis to a variant of nonunion in which there is formation of dense scar tissue and a false joint with serum loculated in the cicatricial mass, the synovial pseudarthrosis. [From OTSUR, 1986, p. 80 and FRATH, 1980, p. 90. ] 3, record 3, English, - nonunion

Absence complète et définitive de consolidation d'une fracture. 1, record 3, French, - pseudarthrose
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
La distinction qui existe entre les termes anglais «nonunion» et «pseudarthrosis» ne se retrouve pas dans les textes français. Il serait probablement préférable de parler plutôt d'absence de consolidation (comme équivalent au terme générique anglais «nonunion») et de n'utiliser le terme pseudarthrose que lorsqu'il y a constitution d'une fausse articulation avec cavité liquidienne (pseudarthrose fibro-synoviale). 2, record 3, French, - pseudarthrose
