Brief summary
use of plate over humeral nail in deformity correction of femur in adult osteoporotic bone
Detailed description
small IM interlocking nail, such as humeral nail, could be used in femoral fixation in normal adolescent patients due to the advantages of the entry point lateral to tip of greater trochanter resulting in avoiding iatrogenic vascular injury and being the IM locking device with smaller diameter and shorter length than conventional femoral nail which was appropriate for small-sized adolescent femoral anatom
Interventions
DEVICEPlate and nail
spinal anesthesia in supine position, lateral approach to the femur is used to do corrective osteotomies and introduction of nail according to preoperative plan. After that, plate is applied to lateral border to the femoral shaft
