Treatment of Tibial Fractures with the Telescopic Locking Nail (Visit this link)
Conclusion: In this multicentre study the Telescopic Locking Nail has proofed to be suitable for treatment of acute fractures of the tibia. The biomechanical properties of the Telescopic Locking Nail make this implant an interesting alternative in the practice of intramedullary locked nailing. Compared to other interlocking nails it has two interesting distinctive features: dynamic interlocking without loosing rotational stability, and adaptation of the nail to any length of the tibia, which makes it very applicable in very distal fractures.
