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 ...

Closed Reduction With Intramedullary Fixation for Midclavicular Fractures
Orthopedics, 2004Adult midclavicular fracture treatment using a minimally invasive technique with cannulated screws inserted from the distal fragment to the proximal fragment avoids unaesthetic scars and compromise of the local blood supply.

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 ...

Fixation of a Proximal Humerus Fracture With an Intramedullary Nail
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2017Summary: Proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) are common injuries seen mostly in elderly patients. Although nonoperative management is acceptable for most patients, surgical fixation is often advocated for younger patients or active, elderly patients with reconstructable fractures.

Metacarpal Fracture Fixation with Intramedullary Screws
The Journal of Hand Surgery (Asian-Pacific Volume)Background: Intramedullary screws (IMS) have become a viable option for metacarpal fracture fixation. To further appraise their utility, this study assessed clinical and patient-reported short- and medium-term outcomes of IMS fixation for extra-articular metacarpal fractures.

Intramedullary Fixation of Proximal Tibia Fractures
Techniques in Orthopaedics, 1998SummaryThe indications for tibial nailing are evolving and expanding from diaphyseal fractures to include proximal, distal, and open fractures. The biologic and mechanical advantages of intramedullary (IM) nail fixation, as well as the increasing number of surgeons who have become proficient in ...

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.

Biomechanics of Locked Intramedullary Fixation of Fractures
2002There are many biomechanical advantages in using an intramedullary implant to fix a long bone fracture. First of all, placing a nail in the medullary canal provides a strong fixation with the lowest „shield effect“on the bone in comparison, for example, with a plate fixation.
