Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical use of intramedullary interlocking nail in treatment of femoral and tibial fractures. Methods104 cases of femoral or tibial fractures were treated with intramedullary interlocking nails.Results The close and open reduction fractures had healed 6 10 and 8 12 weeks after surgery, and the fixation nails were taken out after 48 weeks. No broken nail, no delayed or nonunion, no infection, no fat embolism, no stiff joint occurred, All cases were followed up and the average following was 20 months without fracture.Conclusion The intramedullary interlocking nail had obvious advantage of reliable fixation, rotation and separation prevention, no need of external fixation support, high rate of fracture healing and allowance of early walk without support.
