Abstract
We have reviewed the clinical results of an ultrasound device for refractory fracture in Kagoshima prefecture. Twenty nine patients with nonunion, eleven with delayed union, and two with hip arthrodesis were treated with ultrasound device. Bone union was achieved in 69% of the patients with nonunion and 91% of the patients with delayed union. The untrasound device is useful for the treatment of intractable fracture, however, the success rate of bone union was not as high as previously reported.
