Effect of composite intramedullary nails (IM) on healing of long bone fractures by means of reamed and unreamed methods

Composite Structures, 2017
Complications are common during bone fracture healing owing to incompatibility of the implants. Flexible fibrous composite materials are promising materials that offer excellent biomechanical compatibility.

ECTOPIC NAIL ASSOCIATED WITH BONE DEFORMITY

The Journal of Dermatology, 1984
ABSTRACTA 5‐year‐old girl with a congenital ectopic nail is reported. The nail existed on the tip of left little finger. The distal phalanx showed an M‐shaped deformity on the roentgenogram. After an operation for resectioning of the ectopic nail, the depression between the two peaks of the distal phalanx became shallow.

On the load share between nailing and bone

Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Biomechanics, 2019
Intramedullary nailing, which is positioned inside a long bone as a human femur, has been used to fix fractured bones during the healing process, sharing the mechanical loads with bone. To achieve a good fracture consolidation, the available mechanical load has to be sufficient to activate completely the healing process.

Improved Intramedullary Nail Interlocking in Osteoporotic Bone

Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2001
Intramedullary nail locking bolts often fail to gain purchase or cut out in osteoporotic bone. The biomechanical stability of a bladelike device that lowers intraosseous stress levels by distributing the load over a greater volume of bone was compared with conventional locking bolts in osteoporotic bone.Standardized simulated comminuted supracondylar ...

Compression Nailing of Long Bones

European Journal of Trauma, 2003
Biomechanics: The biomechanical concept of compression nailing consists of the use of an intramedullary device that is inserted into the medullary cavity without jamming and that allows a relative movement of the fragments after locking. First, the implant is firmly attached to the distal main fragment, using conventional locking screws at the nail tip.

Intramedullary Nailing of Long Bone Fractures

AJN, American Journal of Nursing, 1959
T 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 ...

Congenital brachydactyly and nail hypoplasia: clue to bone-dependent nail formation

British Journal of Dermatology, 2005
Congenital hyponychia and anonychia are rare malformations which may form part of syndromes such as nail-patella syndrome, ectodermal dysplasias and brachydactylies, or may occur as an isolated finding. Congenital hyponychia and anonychia are frequently accompanied by underlying skeletal abnormalities.

Treatment of Solitary Bone Cysts with Intramedullary Nailing

Orthopedics, 1988
ABSTRACT: 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.

The bone–metal interface following hip nailing

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research, 1976
AbstractIn 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 ...
