Intramedullary Fixation of Distal Radius Fractures

Hand Clinics, 2010
Intramedullary 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.

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 Headless Screw Fixation for Metacarpal Fractures

Techniques in Hand & Upper Extremity Surgery, 2020
Multiple techniques have been proposed for metacarpal fracture fixation, including percutaneous Kirschner-wires, interfragmentary screws, plate and screw constructs, intramedullary (IM) nails, and cannulated IM headless screws. Each of these treatment options has its proposed advantages and disadvantages, and there remains no consensus on the optimal ...

Flexible Intramedullary Fixation of Femoral Fractures

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1988
Fifty 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 Screw Fixation of Lateral Malleolus Fractures

Foot & Ankle International, 1994
A biomechanical evaluation of intramedullary versus buttress plate and lag screw fixation of lateral malleolus fractures is combined with a clinical evaluation of 44 patients with lateral malleolus fractures who underwent intramedullary screw fixation.

Outcomes and Complications of Intramedullary Metacarpal Fixation

HAND
Background: Metacarpal fractures are common orthopedic injuries with potentially debilitating outcomes. Ideal surgical treatment remains a topic of debate, with intramedullary fixation becoming popular as a technique to allow for earlier mobilization with few reported complications.

Intramedullary osteosynthesis after external fixation.

La Chirurgia degli organi di movimento, 2002
The authors report the results of a retrospective study conducted on 30 cases of fracture of the tibia and femur submitted to external fixation and subsequently to intramedullary osteosynthesis, treated between 1991 and 1999. Intramedullary osteosynthesis was used in 24 cases (5 in the femur and 19 in the tibia) as treatment subsequent to external ...

Intramedullary Screw Fixation for Simple Olecranon Fractures

JBJS Essential Surgical Techniques
Background: Olecranon fractures are common injuries that often require surgical fixation to maintain elbow function. Nonoperative management of these injuries may be indicated in the elderly, as a recent randomized controlled trial found that 81% (9) of 11 operatively managed olecranon fractures in the elderly had complications
