Abstract:
We present a minimally invasive technique for the removal of a broken solid tibial nail. A special device was invented that minimizes the extraction difficulties. After minimal over-reaming, the device is slid in an antegrade fashion over the nail and locked. Retraction is safe and easy. This article is an illustrative case-presentation describing the device and the surgical technique.
