A retrospective review of the rate of septic knee arthritis after retrograde femoral nailing for traumatic femoral fractures at a single academic institution

open access: yesOTA International, 2023
Background:. Retrograde intramedullary nailing of the femur is a popular treatment option for femoral shaft fractures. However, this requires accessing the intramedullary canal through the knee, posing a risk of intra-articular infection.

Outcome of intramedullary nailing treatment for intertrochanteric femoral fractures

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2019
IntroductionThe OTA/AO type 31 A3 intertrochanteric fracture has a transverse or reverse oblique fracture at the lesser trochanteric level, which accentuates the varus compressive stress in the region of the fracture and the implant.

Intramedullary Nailing of Periarticular Fractures [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2018
Plate fixation has historically been the preferred surgical treatment method for periarticular fractures of the lower extremity. This trend has stemmed from difficulties with fracture reduction and concerns of inadequate fixation with intramedullary implants.
