Use of a Vicryl lasso during insertion of locking screws [PDF]
During nailing of long bones, retrieval of locking screws that get ‘lost’ in the soft tissues can be difficult especially in obese patients. We describe a simple technique to avoid this problem. A loop of No. I Vicryl is ‘lassoed’ around the neck of the screw and a clip is attached to its end. The screw is inserted as usual.
