Intramedullary versus extramedullary fixation for the treatment of subtrochanteric fracture: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

International Journal of Surgery, 2019
PURPOSE This meta-analysis was performed to investigate the outcomes of intramedullary fixation versus extramedullary fixation in the treatment of subtrochanteric fracture from the current literature.

Intramedullary screw fixation of metacarpal and phalangeal fracture - A systematic review of 837 patients.

Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation, 2021
Intramedullary screw (IMS) fixation is increasingly used as an alternative treatment option in metacarpal and phalangeal fractures of the hand. However, this technique is currently the subject of controversy among hand surgeons.

Biomechanics of intramedullary fracture fixation.

Orthopedics, 1985
Intramedullary 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.

Risk factors for implant failure of intertrochanteric fractures with lateral femoral wall fracture after intramedullary nail fixation.

Injury, 2021
INTRODUCTION Few studies have specifically evaluated the comminution extent of lateral femoral wall (LFW) fracture and risk factors of implant failure in intertrochanteric fractures with LFW fracture.

Intramedullary Fixation of Distal Fibula Fractures

Foot & Ankle Specialist, 2021
Background Ankle fractures pose a unique challenge to the treating orthopedic surgeon. Intramedullary (IM) distal fibula fixation is a relatively newer entity offering a viable option to minimize wound complications while providing similar outcomes. Our study utilizes an IM nail featuring proximal fixation via IM talons ensuring maintenance of fracture

Unstable Ankle Fracture Fixation Using Locked Fibular Intramedullary Nail in High‐Risk Patients

Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2019
Open reduction internal fixation is the gold standard for unstable ankle fracture fixation; however, complications in patients with multiple medical comorbidities are common.

Intramedullary Fixation of Forearm Fractures

Hand Clinics, 2010
Plate fixation remains the primary surgical treatment option for most adult forearm fractures. However, intramedullary nailing can be successful and might be preferable in cases of massive soft-tissue injury and burns, certain segmental fractures, pathologic fractures, and skeletally immature adolescent patients.

Intramedullary Fixation for Proximal Humeral Fractures

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2020
Proximal humeral fractures are a commonly encountered injury; however, no consensus has been reached for the ideal treatment. Current surgical fixation options include plate, plate with fibular strut allograft, intramedullary fixation, pinning, suture constructs, and external fixation.
