Abstract
Removal of a bent intramedullary nail (IMN) is a rare but challenging orthopedic problem. Several removal techniques have been described up to date; however, there is no extensive review and no algorithm to manage these cases in current literature. The purpose of this paper is to present two cases that presented with bent IMN and provide an algorithm for management of this rare complication.Keywords: Bent; Broken; Complication; Femur; Intramedullary nailing; Tibia
