Novel Intramedullary-Fixation Technique for Long Bone Fragility Fractures Using Bioresorbable Materials

Almost all of the currently available fracture fixation devices for metaphyseal fragility fractures are made of hard metals, which carry a high risk of implant-related complications such as implant cutout in severely osteoporotic patients. We developed a novel fracture fixation technique (intramedul...
