Bent Intramedullary Femoral Nail: Surgical Technique of Removal and Reconstruction
A secondary high-velocity trauma to a previously stabilized femoral fracture with intramedullary nailing is rare. In this paper, we present the management of a 40-year-old man presented with a bent intramedullary nail due to secondary trauma. A lateral longitudinal femoral osteotomy was used for the resection of the distorted nail. The femur was reconstructed with a new nail, and the fixation o...
متن کاملIncidence of intramedullary nail removal after femoral shaft fracture healing.
INTRODUCTION There are limited data on hardware removal after femoral fracture healing. We determined the incidence of intramedullary nail (IMN) removal after midshaft femoral fractures. We also studied demographic factors influencing IMN removal. METHODS The senior author reviewed all adult femoral fractures with IMN placement in the trauma practice between July 1990 and November 2003. There...
متن کاملDesign of a new tibial intramedullary nail
Aim of this work is designing a new intramedullary nail able to reduce the drawbacks of the distal locking, ensuring the axial stability, so enabling a speedy recovery of the fracture and a time-reduced immobilization of the limb. During the first phases of the design process, the parametric CAD model has been carried out and, successively, several numerical analyses have been set up to verify ...
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 کاملFracture on removal of the ACE tibial nail.
We report four patients who sustained secondary fractures of the posterior wall of the tibial shaft during the removal of one pattern of intramedullary nail after fracture healing. The cause of this complication is discussed.
