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

open access: yes, 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.

Evaluation for radiographic changes in the coxofemoral joint and proximal femur following intramedullary stabilisation of diaphyseal femoral fractures using angle‐stable interlocking nails in skeletally immature patients

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives To evaluate a juvenile dog population that sustained diaphyseal femoral fractures surgically stabilised with an angle‐stable interlocking nail and evaluate for evidence of proximal femoral malformation both periooperatively and at skeletal maturity.

Is a Magnetic-Manual Targeting Device an Appealing Alternative for Distal Locking of Tibial Intramedullary Nails? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1298-1313, May 2025.
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 ...

Finite‐Element Comparison of a Proximal Femoral Laterally Bionic Intramedullary Nail (PFLBN) Versus PFNA and PFBN for AO/OTA 31‐A3.1 Intertrochanteric Fractures

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This study used finite element analysis to compare the stress distribution and displacement characteristics of three intramedullary fixation constructs—proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA), proximal femoral bionic nail (PFBN), and proximal femoral laterally bionic intramedullary nail (PFLBN)—for AO/OTA 31‐A3.1 intertrochanteric fractures.
