Role of Intramedullary Interlocking Nailing In Complex Femoral Shaft Fractures

Mini-open reduction and intramedullary interlocking nailing of fracture shaft of tibia without an image intensifier.

Intramedullary interlocking tibial nailing is usually performed using an image intensifier. But being expensive, it is not available in the most of the hospitals of resource-poor countries of the world. The purpose of this study is to analyze the results of interlocking nailing without the use of an image intensifier. This is the retrospective study of 55 diaphyseal tibial fractures treated wit...
