摘要: 10 patients with previous femoral shaft fracture treated locked intramedullary nailing were examined by computed tomography (CT) a few days after nail removal. The bone density, cortical thickness and geometric shape of the fractured extremity compared those on contralateral side. Only small reduction in density (4 7 percent, respectively) was revealed outside area diaphyseal part nailed bones. A distinct trabecular observed condyles as well ipsilateral tibial condyle (19 17 respectively). Our results indicate that stress-reducing effect nails diaphysis is small.
