Biomechanics of Intramedullary Fracture Fixation
Orthopedics, 1985Intramedullary rodding allows excellent control of bending forces on long bone fractures when adequate sized rods are used. This is made possible by reaming when necessary. Torsional stability is poor if adequate bone nail contact is not obtained and there is little bone fragment interdigitation.

The Mechanics and Biology of Intramedullary Fracture Fixation
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1986Intramedullary (IM) fracture fixation serves to stabilize fracture fragments and maintains alignment, while permitting motion at the fracture site during functional activities. Acting as an internal splint, the implant serves as a load-sharing device and fracture healing progresses with the formation of peripheral callus. By allowing motion of adjacent
