Flexible intramedullary nailing in the treatment of diaphyseal fractures of the femur in preschool children [PDF]
, 2008 Femur fractures in preschool children are mostly treated in a conservative way, by means of spica cast immobilisation or skin traction. In school age children the use of flexible intramedullary nails (FIN) is widely used and promoted.

An assessment of outcomes with intramedullary fixation of fractured ribs
Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2016 BackgroundSurgical management of fractured ribs with internal fixation is an increasingly accepted therapy. Concurrently, specific rib fixation prostheses are being developed which should improve results and minimise hardware and rib/splint construct ...

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1536-1546, May 2025.Four patients with severe wrist destruction from various causes were treated with customized 3D‐printed prostheses. In addition to the specific articular surface matching their original radiocarpal joint, two innovative proximal component designs were created to address different bone defects.

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.Given the differences in age, injury mechanism, and anatomy between subrotator and intertrochanteric fractures, the conventional TAD and CAL‐TAD may not be suitable for intertrochanteric fractures. This study retrospectively reviewed subrotator fractures complications to find the optimal position for subrotator fractures.

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.This study examines factors affecting functional outcomes and survival in 41 patients with metastatic humeral fractures treated with intramedullary nails. Actual fractures and shaft fractures showed better pain improvement. Patients with a known cancer diagnosis prior to fracture and older patients had poor functional outcomes.

Use of blocked intramedullary shaft for the treatment of humeral diaphyseal fractures [PDF]
, 2005 Clinical and radiographic outcomes of 31 patients with humeral diaphyseal fractures submitted to surgery with intramedullary shafts were studied. From these, four patients presented fractures at the shaft insertion site and were treated using a different
