A new technique for removal of an incarcerated expandable femoral nail.

Abstract

UNLABELLED: Removal of intramedullary nails often is relegated to younger surgeons but may be difficult and challenging. We describe difficulties with removal of an incarcerated expandable femoral nail and a new technique for retrograde mobilization of an intramedullary nail through a small infrapatellar incision. No special device was necessary for successful implant removal. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level V, therapeutic study. See Guidelines for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
