Intramedullary Fixation of Distal Radius Fractures
Hand Clinics, 2010Intramedullary fixation is the latest in a variety of techniques that have been developed to manage distal radius fractures. Intramedullary nailing of these fractures combines the soft-tissue advantages of a less invasive surgical approach with the biomechanical advantages of locking screw technology.

Intramedullary Screw Fixation of Jones Fractures
Foot & Ankle International, 2001Background: Jones fractures of the fifth metatarsal can be stabilized using intramedullary screw fixation techniques. A range of screw diameters from 4.5 mm to 6.5 mm can be used, but the optimal screw for this procedure has yet to be defined. In clinical practice, we have observed that failure is more likely when smaller diameter screws are used.

INTERLOCKING INTRAMEDULLARY FIXATION OF HAND FRACTURES
Orthopedics, 1993Abstract Reduction and stabilization can be especially difficult in treating comminuted hand fractures with bone loss or nonunion. Two cases are presented to illustrate a method of intramedullary fixation using an AO mini fragment reconstruction plate, which allows interlocking fixation proximally and distali).

COMPLICATIONS OF INTRAMEDULLARY FIXATION OF FRACTURES OF THE FEMUR
Archives of Surgery, 1951A GROWING popularity for intramedullary treatment of femoral shaft fractures is indicated by the increasing number of medical articles and views on the subject in this country. While complications may occur, most are avoidable, and in spite of them, there is a real justification for this trend because the patient is returned to a physiological state ...

Intramedullary Fixation of Distal Radius Fractures
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2009Intramedullary fixation has recently received increased enthusiasm as an option for distal radius fracture fixation. Indications for this fracture fixation technique should be limited to predominately displaced extra-articular or simple intra-articular distal radius fractures. Intramedullary fixation permits limited soft tissue dissection and insertion

Intramedullary Fixation of Hand Fractures and Arthrodeses
The Journal of Hand SurgeryIntramedullary fixation has long been popular for fracture fixation in the upper extremity from the shoulder through the carpus. Recently, intramedullary fixation in the hand has gained increasing interest, specifically in the metacarpals and phalanges, corresponding with the development of improved cannulated headless screw technology.

The Role of Intramedullary Fixation in Open Fractures
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1986Intramedullary nailing of open fractures requires careful surgical judgment, consideration of alternative techniques, and the ability to use a number of different methods, including various designs with or without obligatory reaming. With good technique and well-selected indications, intramedullary nailing of open fractures may offer advantages not ...

Flexible Intramedullary Fixation of Femoral Fractures
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1988Fifty femoral fractures in 47 patients were treated by the insertion of flexible intramedullary Ender rods and observed until fracture healing was complete. Both condylocephalic and trochanteric approaches were used with a preference for the latter when biomechanically feasible.

Intramedullary Fixation of Fibular Fractures Associated With Pilon Fractures
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2010The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of intramedullary fibular fixation to maintain reduction until healing and to determine the overall complication rate in high-energy pilon fractures associated with fibular fractures.Retrospective study.Level I university trauma center.From 2000 to 2007, 972 pilon fractures were treated at our ...
