Key Points

The frequency of union in intramedullary solid nailing was 78.46%, indicating a notable success rate in tibia fractures.
In this study, 130 patients with tibia fractures were enrolled, and x-rays were used to assess union after 6 months.
The randomized controlled trial was conducted in a hospital setting, ensuring rigorous observation of outcomes.
The results indicate a significant difference in union rates between intramedullary nailing and cannulated nailing.
