Flexible intramedullary nailing in the treatment of diaphyseal fractures of the femur in preschool children [PDF]
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.

Is a Magnetic-Manual Targeting Device an Appealing Alternative for Distal Locking of Tibial Intramedullary Nails? [PDF]
Background: In order to enable a radiation-free, accurate and simple positioning of distal locking screws, a combined magnetic and manual targeting system has been developed by Sanatmetal®. Where a low-frequency magnetic field is initially used to detect

Treatment Trade‐Offs and Choices for Femoral Fractures: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
This review examines the trade‐offs between surgical intervention and traction therapy for adult and elderly patients with femoral fractures and surgical contraindications, particularly in resource‐limited settings. While intramedullary nailing may offer better clinical outcomes, traction therapy is often preferred due to limited surgical resources ...
