The most popular model of the bone healing considers the fracture callus as poroelastic medium. As such it requires an assumption of the callus’ external permeability. In this work a systematic study of the influence of the permeability of the callus boundary on the simulated bone healing progress is performed. The results show, that these conditions starts to play significant role with the decrease of the callus size. Typically enforced impermeability inhibits the progress of healing during simulation. A remedy for this effect is imposing drainage conditions at the callus’ boundary.
