Overview

Retrospective analysis shows compressive nails improve bone union and functional scores in femur fractures.

Key Points

  • Compressive nails significantly reduce bone union time in patients with femoral shaft fractures.
  • Group 2 utilized 1.0-mm compressive nails, achieving a mean union period of 12.2 months and a functional score of 85.
  • Finite element analysis indicated no significant difference between 1.0-mm and 1.5-mm compression on bone union.
  • In Group 3, all patients achieved union, highlighting the effectiveness of compressive nails for fracture healing.
