The use of computed tomographic scan to assess femoral malrotation after intramedullary nailing. A case report.

T W Dugdale1, G G Degnan, C H Turen.   

Abstract

Malrotation complicating intramedullary nailing of the femur must be recognized before healing occurs in the early postoperative period to obtain correction with the least possible effort. A 20-year-old man with more than 40 degrees of excessive external rotation required careful evaluation and demonstrated the value of computed axial tomography (CT scan) followed by derotation.
