Complications associated with the use of the gamma nail.

W W Williams1, B C Parker.   

Abstract

At Kingston Hospital, the Gamma nail has only been used for the fixation of unstable intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures of the femur. There have been 28 cases; 21 required distal locking. Of these, there were intraoperative difficulties in nine.
