1 Locked itramedullary nail for fracture shaft of femur Without (or with very low) fluoroscopic control

الملخص

A review of 48 patients sustained a fracture shaft of femur for different mechanism of injury ;RTA ,direct blunt trama ,blast and shell injury, gun shot injury , and pathological fractures .all were operated on by ante grade reamed LIMN Targon aesculap design at al diwaniya teaching hospital from December 2009 to October 2010. the LINM were applied and used without fluoroscopic guidance or very little use , in order to minimize or eliminate the ionizing radiations to surgical staff as well as the patients and it’s hazards which may occur due to excessive x ray exposure throughout surgery with mini invasive small incision and open reduction and good perioperative templating

Aim of the study:
Using of locked intramedullary nail for fixation of fracture shaft of femur without ( or with very low) imaging intensification guidance
