ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the results of rotary self-locking intramedullary nail (RSIN) for treating long tubular bone fracture of extremities, and discuss the current problems. Methods One hundred and twenty-two patients with long tubular bone fracture of extremities,including 59 femoral fractures,57 tibial fractures and 6 humeral fractures,who had been treated by RSIN were retrospectively investigated. Results All of the patients achieved clin-ical healing,with an average time of 24 weeks. Nobody was found to appear maluniun,infection and the break of inter-nal fixture. Internal fixations were removed after the fracture healing,with an average time of 14 months. It was diffi-cult to remove the internal fixations in 5 cases, and one case refractured after removing the internal fixations. Conclu-sion RSIN has the advantages such as easy operation,less trauma,no pendulum effect,early motion after operation and so on, except the characters of general interlocking intramedullary nail such as anti-rotation, anti-crispition and anti-displacement.
