Abstract |
|
Most humeral shaft fractures, except those situated at the distal 2–3 cm of the diaphysis, are suitable for IM nailing (Pickering et al. 2002). There are several techniques and implants available. The nails can be divided into small calibre nails (e.g. Rush-pins, Ender), bundle nails (e.g. Hackenthal, Marchetti-Vicenzi), non-locking nails (Küntscher) and locking nails (e.g. Seidel, UHN, St Pro, Russel-Taylor). According to entry site, IM nailing can be either ante grade or retrograde. The medullary canal can be enlarged (reamed) to achieve a better hold and allow larger nails to be used, or non-reaming techniques can be used. |
