Özet
ObjectivesThis study was conducted to evaluate clinically and radiologically the patients for whom compressive and non-compressive intramedullary nails were applied and to analyse the compression effectiveness in adult femur distal diaphysis fractures.HypothesisThe compressive locked nails shortened the union period in the distal diaphysis fractures, and it was found to be an effective method, as the pseudoarthrosis rate was lower.Material and methodsA retrospective study was conducted among 59 patients for whom the compressive and non-compressive IMNs were applied to treat femur distal diaphysis fractures. Thirty-one for whom the non-compressive IMN was applied were categorised as group I, and 28 for whom the compressive nail was applied were categorised as group II. Finite element analysis was performed using 1.5 mm compression, and a mean stress value of 34.67 Mpa.ResultsThe mean ...
