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.

Intramedullary Fixation of Midshaft Clavicle Fractures

Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2017
Summary: Clavicle fractures are among the most common fractures occurring in the general population, and the vast majority are localized in the midshaft portion of the bone. Management of midshaft clavicle fractures remains controversial. Although many can be managed nonoperatively, certain patient populations and fracture patterns, such as ...

Comparative Study of Intramedullary Hammertoe Fixation

Foot & Ankle International, 2018
Background: Temporary Kirschner wire fixation (K-wire) is a widely used, low-cost fixation method for the correction of hammertoe deformity. Reported complications associated with K-wires prompted the development of new implants over the past decade.

Retrograde Intramedullary Screw Fixation for Metacarpal Fractures: A Systematic Review

HAND, 2021
Common forms of fixation of metacarpal fractures have historically included percutaneous Kirschner wire fixation, plates and screws, and, more recently, intramedullary screw fixation.

Biomechanical comparison of intramedullary screw fixation, dorsal plating and K-wire fixation for stable metacarpal shaft fractures

Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 2021
We compared four methods of metacarpal shaft fixation: 2.2 mm intramedullary headless compression screw; 3.0 mm intramedullary headless compression screw; intramedullary K-wire fixation; and dorsal plate fixation. Transverse mid-diaphyseal fractures were

Postoperative Complications of Minimally Invasive Intramedullary Nail Fixation Versus Plate Fixation for Distal Fibular Fractures in Elderly Patients: A Retrospective Double Cohort Study in a Geriatric Trauma Unit in the Netherlands.

Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2021
Intramedullary fixation using a fibular nail is a minimally invasive alternative to conventional plate fixation that provides superior biomechanical strength and allows immediate full weightbearing postoperatively.

Intramedullary Fixation of Distal Fibula Fractures [PDF]

open access: possibleFoot & 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

Intramedullary Fixation Versus Plate Fixation of Distal Fibular Fractures: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials and Observational Studies

Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2019
&NA; Intramedullary fixation (IMF) has been described as a minimally invasive alternative to open reduction and internal fixation for operative treatment of distal fibular fractures in case of compromised soft tissue or severe comorbidities.
