Biomechanical comparison of semi-rigid pediatric locking nail versus titanium elastic nails in a femur fracture model

BACKGROUND: The treatment for length-unstable diaphyseal femur fractures among school-age children is commonly intramedullary elastic nails, with or without end caps. Another possible treatment is the semi-rigid pediatric locking nail (PLN). The purpose of this biomechanical study was to assess the...
