+ Absolute stability
No micromotion in the fracture healing by
primary (direct) bone without callus formation
![Page 3: principles of fracture fixation](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062312/556afd9bd8b42a2a4f8b4daa/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
+ Relative stability
There is some motion in the fracture fragments stimulation of callus formation secondary bone healing by callus formation

Fracture Simple fracture
(<2 mm) Multifragmentary (>2 mm)
Relative stability Bone resorption, healing delay, or nonunion
Secondary bone healing (callus)
Absolute stability Primary bone healing, osteonal remodelling
Bone resorption, healing delay, or nonunion

Simple diaphysial fracture anatomical reduction and absolute stabilization
Intraarticular fracture anatomic congruity of the joint surface must be restored and the fragments should be fixed rigidly by interfragmentary compression
Diaphysial multifragmentary fracture god alignment in all planes and relative stabilization.
