| pubmed-article:10505126 | pubmed:abstractText | A simple technique for removal of the distal fragment of the broken intramedullary interlocking nail is described. It was successfully used in three patients with a broken nail due to nonunion. The technique requires only cerclage wire, which is available in any operating room, avoiding the difficulties obtaining the custom made hook and of excessive exposure to radiation. | lld:pubmed |
