The present study was designed to investigate of possible potential fracture healing activity of 400 mg/kg ethanolic extract of Lepidium sativum L. seeds in internally fixed rats’ femoral osteotomy model. The experimental protocol designed as the animals were divided into two groups (n=6) like control and test groups and was administrated vehicle and extract, respectively. X–Ray method was use for of assessment of bone healing activity. It was taken for each animal of control and test group at 2nd, 4th and 8th weeks. After fourth week, X‐ray photographs shows that test group had significantly larger callus formation and more disposing of osseous material as compare to control group. After eight weeks, X‐Ray photographs indicated that the fractures bone of test group animals had seen as complete joined but not in control group. The present study data revealed that ethanolic extract of Lepidium sativum seeds may be significant fracture healing activity.
