Proximal Tibial Intramedullary Nailing Failed Fixation
摘要
Proximal tibial fractures have been difficult to treat. Treatment with intramedullary nailing is an attractive option as it represents minimal invasive surgery with skin incisions remote from the fracture site.

Herein, we examine the causes of failure and how to revise failed cases providing some tips and tricks.
