| Abstract. | The presented study is based on an analysis of the pathophysiologic factors of metatarsal fracture in patients over the age of presenescence, i.e. 50 years. We consider that the mechanisms of its production as well as its reduction present specific aspects for study. The fact that people with fractures of the lower limb are functionally limited in terms of locomotion requires a punctual analysis of all the elements that make up the clinical picture of the posttraumatic patient. Through the proposed approach we aim to identify and analyze the factors that may hinder the process of callus healing at the level of the focus, as well as the elements that may facilitate and optimize the recovery process. |
