Comparison of free-hand fluoroscopic guidance and electromagnetic navigation in distal locking of femoral intramedullary nails
BACKGROUND Although the method has been used widely, one of the greatest challenges for intramedullary nailing is to position the distal locking screw. A new technology, the electromagnetic navigation system, is a radiation-free way to locate the position of the drill bit and provide 3-dimensional real-time feedback of location and orientation of the drill bit relative to the locking holes. The...

15 صفحه اولThe Fish Hook Technique of extracting broken intramedullary nails.
Removal of hardware in orthopaedic surgery is usually encountered in revision fracture surgery for non union, mal union, infection and peri-implant failure. If the hardware has broken this can make revision surgery even more demanding. Numerous techniques have been described to facilitate implant removal. A broken femoral nail is not an uncommon presentation of a delayed union or a non union. W...
متن کاملDistal interlocking screw placement in the femur: free-hand versus electromagnetic assisted technique (sureshot).
OBJECTIVES To compare the free-hand (FH) technique of placing interlocking screws to a commercially available electromagnetic (EM) targeting system in terms of operating time, radiation dose, and accuracy of screw placement. METHODS Between September 2011 and July 2012, we prospectively randomized 100 consecutive femur shaft fractures in 99 patients requiring intramedullary nails to either FH...
