Mechanical Failures in Magnetic Intramedullary Lengthening Nails

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2022
Background: Magnetic intramedullary lengthening nails (MILNs) have gained popularity in recent years for the treatment of limb-lengthening discrepancies.

Bone dependent nail formation

British Journal of Dermatology, 1986
Two sporadic cases with congenital anonychia and hypoplastic nails combined with ectrophalangia or hypoplastic phalanges are reported. It is suggested that congenital anonychia and hyponychia may be 'bone territory' dependent disorders.

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.

Congenital ectopic nail with bone deformity

British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1998
This report describes two cases of congenital ectopic nail with bone deformity. Histologically, the squamous epithelium of the nail matrix lacked a definite granular layer. Resected nail tissue was connected with the periosteum of the tip of the ungual phalanx, which suggested that the contact of the ectopic nail matrix with the periosteum could impede

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.

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.

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 ...
