Inadvertent advancement of guide wire across the knee caused by incarcerated bone fragment at the nail tip during femoral nailing

Chinese Journal of Traumatology, 2014
Fracture of femoral shaft in adults is common and mostly managed with intramedullary interlocking nails. Complications during closed intramedullary femoral nailing are uncommon, and mostly of them are caused by technical reasons. We describe a case

Patellar Malalignment Combined With Deformed Valgus Knee Treated by Distal Femoral Varus Osteotomy and Retrograde Intramedullary Nailing

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 1, Page 66-73, January 2026.
Patellar malalignment combined with a deformed valgus knee is treated. After the nail inlet hole is created, the distal femur is obliquely osteotomized by creating a posterior cam on the distal bony fragment. The cam is consequently inserted into the marrow cavity of the proximal bony fragment and the desired axis of the lower extremity is realigned. A

Comparative study of the efficacy of gentamicin-coated intramedullary interlocking nail versus regular intramedullary interlocking nail in Gustilo type I and II open tibia fractures

Chinese Journal of Traumatology, 2019
Purpose: Open tibia fracture is prone to infection, consequently causing significant morbidity and increasing the hospital stay, occupational loss and onset of chronic osteomyelitis. Intramedullary nailing is one choice for treating tibia shaft fractures.

Comparison of Two Posterior Minimally Invasive Approaches for Odontoid Fractures: Midline Nuchal Ligament Approach vs. Paramedian Muscle‐Splitting Approach

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 1, Page 74-83, January 2026.
The midline nuchal ligament approach yields clinical outcomes similar to those of the paramedian muscle‐splitting technique for odontoid fractures, while offering a more stable surgical procedure and reducing iatrogenic injury to the cervical posterior muscles and the greater occipital nerve.

Pulmonary Dysfunction in Patients with Femoral Shaft Fracture Treated with Intramedullary Nailing [PDF]

, 2001
Background: This study was undertaken to determine whether alveolar dead space increases during intramedullary nailing of femoral shaft fractures and whether alveolar dead space predicts postoperative pulmonary dysfunction in patients undergoing ...

Quantitative MRI Signal Changes of the Spinal Cord as Predictors of Suboptimal Surgical Outcomes in Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 1, Page 84-92, January 2026.
Ninety‐four patients diagnosed with increased signal intensity (ISI) on T2‐weighted MRI and treated with anterior cervical decompression for DCM between January 2021 and June 2023 were reviewed, Higher signal change ratio (SCR), the presence of snake‐eye appearance (SEA), and long symptoms predict poor DCM outcomes, highlighting the need for early ...

Surgical management of tibia refracture with a bent intramedullary nail: A case report and review of the literature

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports
Intramedullary nailing is the gold standard for long bone fractures in the lower limbs. Fractures of the tibia with bending of the intramedullary nail is a very uncommon complication. Removing a bent nail is an unpredictable and challenging procedure for

Risk factors of poor mid-term shoulder functional outcomes of osteosynthesis using antegrade intramedullary nailing for humeral shaft fractures: a retrospective study with a minimum 5-year follow-up

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Osteosynthesis using antegrade intramedullary nailing for humeral shaft fractures yields satisfactory bone union rates; however, it may adversely affect postoperative shoulder function.
