Expandable intramedullary nail: review of biomechanical studies
This article reviews studies of Fixion expandable nail biomechanical properties in case of long bones fractures osteosynthesis. The purpose of this study was to systematize biomechanical researches dedicated to the expandable nail. There were found seven biomechanical studies published between 2005 and 2008. Among them, six studies are devoted to mechanical experiments, and one is a comment to ...

متن کاملFracture of an expandable intramedullary nail. Surgical technique for nail removal.
Intramedullary nailing with expandable nails is one of the techniques available for the treatment of fractures of long bones. Concerns regarding bony union have been reported in medical literature, but no case of femoral nail breakage secondary to delayed union has been reported to date. We present a case of a broken expandable femoral nail secondary to delayed union, and we describe the techni...
متن کاملBiomechanical Evaluation of the Surgical Implant Generation Network (SIGN) Intramedullary Tibial Nail
INTRODUCTION: The orthopaedic community has become increasingly cognizant of the disparity that exists in healthcare throughout the developing world. Annually, there are nearly five million deaths worldwide due to traumatic injuries; a number approximating that of HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined. Motor vehicle trauma accounts for a large proportion of these deaths, and for every dea...
