The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1988
Between 1962 and 1987, we treated fifty-six patients for sixty broken intramedullary nails, using a custom-made hook to extract the distal fragment of the nail. The charts and radiographs of all of the patients were reviewed. Thirty-nine of the nails had been inserted in a fresh fracture, which usually was comminuted; eight had been used for fixation ...

Intramedullary Nailing of Forearm Fractures
Hand Clinics, 2023The primary goal in operative fixation of forearm fractures is to restore length, rotational stability, and maintenance of the radial bow. Plate osteosynthesis is well regarded as the gold standard of treatment though often necessitates soft tissue injury, periosteal stripping, and risk of refracture after hardware removal.

Intramedullary nailing with interlocking
Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 1990The locked or unlocked intramedullary nail is considered today in most institutions the first choice for stabilisation of the majority of closed diaphyseal fractures of the femur and tibia. In 1st and 2nd degree open fractures of the tibia, the unreamed locked nail may perhaps become the preferred implant.

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1957
From November 1954 to June 1956, a period of one and one-half years, fourteen patients were treated at our clinic by means of the intramedullary nail designed by the author. In thirteen patients the lower limb had been surgically shortened at least four centimeters, and in the fourteenth patient (Case 13) pathological fracture of the femur as a result ...

Intramedullary Nailing: Evolutions of Femoral Intramedullary Nailing: First to Fourth Generations
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2011Intramedullary femoral nailing is the gold standard for femoral shaft fixation but only in the past 27 years. This rapid replacement of closed traction and cast techniques in North America was a controversial and contentious evolution in surgery. As we enter the fourth generation of implant design, capabilities, and surgical technique, it is important ...

Transfixion intramedullary nail.
Orthopaedic review, 1988The Modny transfixion intramedullary nail has been used in 261 cases of complex femoral fractures with excellent results. Proximal, medial, and distal comminutions of all sizes were accurately transfixed by this open method. Transfixion screws and biologic ingrowth fixed the fragments rapidly, resulting in no measurable shortening or rotational ...

[Unreamed intramedullary nailing].
Der Orthopade, 2010Reaming and non-reaming of intramedullary nails in long bone fractures was a controversial and even emotional topic in recent decades. This article gives an historical overview of the development in this field and presents the background to the need for unreamed nailing.
