Systematic review of complications with externally controlled motorized intramedullary bone lengthening nails (FITBONE and PRECICE) in 983 segments [PDF]
Acta Orthopaedica, 2020 Background and purpose — In recent years motorized intramedullary lengthening nails have become increasingly popular. Complications are heterogeneously reported in small case series and therefore we made a systematic review of complications occurring in ...

An in vivo evaluation of surface polishing of TAN intermedullary nails for ease of removal [PDF]
European Cells & Materials, 2009 Fractures of the tibia and femoral diaphysis are commonly repaired by intra-medullary (IM) nailing. Currently IM nails are available in either electropolished stainless steel (SS) or in Titanium-Aluminium-Niobium (TAN).
