Intramedullary locking nails have proved to be of considerable advantage when treating complex, comminuted or segmental femoral shaft fractures. We have reviewed 117 patients with 120 femoral shaft fractures treated with the Strasbourg device. These included 20 compound fractures, 13 pathological fractures and two non-unions. Rehabilitation and union rates have been very satisfactory and there have been no serious infections in the series. Comminution of the proximal femur has occurred in six patients and there have been three femoral neck fractures, but all of these have healed without further complications.
