Intramedullary Interlocking Nail Fixation in Dogs and Cats: Biomechanics and Instrumentation*
of diaphyseal long bone fractures. Interlocking nails have transverse cannulations that accommodate transcortical screws, allowing surgeons to firmly fix the rod within the medullary canal, thereby effectively neutralizing bending, rotational, and axial forces that act on fractures. Interlocking nails have become increasingly To counter axial and rotational forces, intramedullary nails were dev...
متن کاملThe functional results of tibial shaft fractures treated with intramedullary nail compressed by proximal tube.
Nailing of tibial shaft fractures is considered the gold standard surgical method by many surgeons. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate and compare the clinical outcome of tibial shaft fractures treated with intramedullary nails compressed by proximal tube and conventional intramedullary interlocking nails. Fifty-seven patients with tibial shaft fractures, treated with intram...
متن کاملBiomechanical comparison of distal locking screws for distal tibia fracture intramedullary nailing
Background: Newer generation intramedullary (IM) tibial nails provide several distal interlocking screw options. The objectives were to determine: 1) if the new oblique interlocking option provides superior stability, 2) which screw orientation/ configuration is the most biomechanically stable, and 3) if three distal interlocking screws provide better stability. Methods: A preliminary experimen...
متن کاملImpact of posterior tibial nail malpositioning on iatrogenic injuries by distal medio-lateral interlocking screws. A cadaveric study on plastinated specimens.
In intramedullary tibial nailing, multi-planar locking makes stabilization of proximal and distal metaphyseal fractures possible. A known complication in intramedullary nailing of the tibia is iatrogenic injury to neuro-vascular structures caused by the insertion of locking screws. As shown in previous studies, the distal positioning of the nail is important, as it determines the course of the ...
متن کاملPerceptions and Realities for Distal Freehand Interlocking of Intramedullary Nails
There is a perception that distal freehand interlocking (DFHI) of intramedullary nails can be difficult and time consuming. This study consists of a survey of surgeons' practices for DFHI screws and their reasons for not using this technique. A survey was sent to 1400 orthopaedic surgeons who were asked to agree or disagree with statements regarding the difficulty and indications for the usage ...
