The bone–metal interface following hip nailing
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research, 1976AbstractIn order to establish a base line for tissue reaction in relationship to loaded implanted foreign materials that might be used for comparison with new materials, the interface between the trabecular bone in the femoral head and hip nails has been studied in 20 specimens.The interface consists of four distinguishable layers: a cellular layer at ...

Treatment of Solitary Bone Cysts with Intramedullary Nailing
Orthopedics, 1988ABSTRACT: The article describes the treatment of solitary bone cysts of the upper and lower limbs by means of elastic intramedullary nailing. In the 11 cases treated, bone rehabilitation was complete, probably due to the defection of the intracystic fluid by means of the drainage caused by the nails.

Geometric fit of the intramedullary nail to the bone cavity
Journal of Biomechanics, 1985The intended function of IM nails is to facilitate fracture healing while avoiding the problems associated with fracture disease. These problems include joint stiffness, loss of range of motion and mobility, and loss of muscle strength. Internal fixation with intramedullary (IM) nails avoids these problems by early mobilization and weight bearing of ...

Intramedullary Nailing of Long Bone Fractures
AJN, American Journal of Nursing, 1959T A time when trauma is responsible for a large and possibly increasing number of hospital admissions, it is pertinent to consider an important adjunct in the open treatment of fractures-namely, intramedullary fixation or nailing. This merely means that a metal rod or nail is inserted through the marrow cavity of a fractured bone fragment and driven ...

Flexible Intramedullary Nailing for the Treatment of Unicameral Bone Cysts in Long Bones*
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2000Unicameral bone cyst is characterized by its tenacity and risk of recurrence. Pathological fracture is common and is often the presenting symptom. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the results of flexible intramedullary nailing for the treatment of a unicameral bone cyst with or without a pathological fracture.Flexible intramedullary ...

Titanium Intramedullary Nailing for Treatment of Simple Bone Cysts of the Long Bones in Children
Scottish Medical Journal, 2010Background Simple or unicameral bone cysts are common benign fluid-filled lesions usually located in the long bones of children before skeletal maturity. Pathological fracture is common, and is often the presenting feature. Aim The objective of the present study was to evaluate the results of titanium intramedullary nailing for the treatment of ...

Pediatric Both Bone Fracture: Flexible Nails
2021Forearm fractures in children are among the most common long bone injuries, which occur in about 1% of children annually, with a peak incidence in the early adolescent age group. Though most of these fractures can be treated with casting, with or without closed reduction, the orthopedic surgeon may indicate a patient for operative fixation with ...

Bone regrowth in young mice stimulated by nail organ
Journal of Experimental Zoology, 1995AbstractRecent studies of postamputational repair following digit‐tip amputation revealed am unexpected correlation between nail regrowth and bone regrowth in mice. To examine putative effects of nail on bone regrowth, phalangeal tips were amputated such that nail was artificially removed from distal levels or retained following proximal level ...

The Antibiotic Nail in the Treatment of Long Bone Infection
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2017Antibiotic cement nails provide a useful and relatively simple technique to treat intramedullary osteomyelitis of the long bones. These devices provide stability as well as local, targeted antibiotics, which are both critical aspects of osteomyelitis management.
