Where the bone broke. There are three primary types of bone: woven bone, cortical bone, and cancellous bone. Woven bone is found during embryonic development, during fracture healing (callus formation), and in some pathological states such as hyperparathyroidism and Paget disease. It is composed of randomly arranged collagen bundles and irregularly shaped vascular spaces lined with osteoblasts. Woven bone is normally remodeled and replaced with cortical or cancellous bone.
