Intramedullary nailing technique for tibial fractures: through a suprapatellar, transarticular approach with the knee flexed at 20-30° and a specific protective tube to protect the intra-articular structures.01.Tibial intramedullary nailing: access and alignment, anterior knee painSurgical access fo

A locking plate is a fracture fixing device with a threaded hole that turns the plate into an angular fixing device (screw) when a screw with a threaded head is screwed into it. Locking (angle-stabilized) plates can have both locking and non-locking holes for different screws to be screwed into (als

Intramedullary nail fixation remains the treatment of choice for unstable and displaced tibial stem fractures in adults. The goal of surgical treatment is to restore length, alignment and rotation of the tibia and to achieve fracture healing. The advantages of intramedullary nailing are minimal surg

The development of femoral fracture treatment can be traced back to the 1940s when Kuntscher introduced the closed intramedullary nailing technique. The use of intramedullary nails (IMNs) in femoral fractures has become the standard of care over the past few decades, and current improvements in intramedullary nailing and advances in surgical techniques have allowed for a significant increase in the use of intramedullary nailing of the femur.
