👉 Osteogangrene is a condition in which bone tissue grows around and between bone fragments, often resulting from trauma or chronic inflammation. It occurs when a bone fragment breaks apart, allowing bacteria to grow and form a tunnel through the bone tissue. This can lead to infection and sometimes fractures. The term "osteogangrene" comes from the Greek word "osteo-" which means bone, as it is the term used for bones that have been broken or fractured.
