Experimental model for a new distal locking aiming device for solid intramedullary tibia nails.

A distal locking device for the solid intramedullary tibial nails has been tried on bone models. This device allows simple and accurate insertion of distal locking screws with minimum radiation exposure to the patient and the surgeons. It also reduces the operation time. The aim of this experiment was to test the accuracy of the new aiming device and to measure the radiation exposure time during the procedure.

Tibial shortening for correction of leg length discrepancy and deformity: a new technique.

Where length discrepancy occurs in the skeletally mature lower leg, there may be a benefit in using the technique of tibial shortening. Existing techniques have not been widely adopted and are associated with a high incidence of soft tissue complications. We describe a technique of progressive shortening, which we believe is a safe method, having adapted this from techniques for dealing with traumatic bone loss.
