Abstract
Cortisone significantly impairs the repair of fractured humeri in rats, when administered prior to fracture or when given during the 3-week healing period. No impairment is evident when 17-ethyl-19-nortestosterone is given simultaneously with cortisone. Bone healing was measured by the S35 uptake procedure.Keywords
