    Hackethal nailing, a fracture treatment, is now limited to specific upper extremity shaft fractures due to past complications. This study re-evaluates its current indications and application in orthopedic surgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Biomechanical Engineering

    Context:

    • The Hackethal nailing technique, developed in 1959, relies on elastic jamming principles for fracture stabilization.
    • Historically applied to various long bone fractures, its extensive use led to a high complication rate.

    Purpose:

    • To re-evaluate and define the current indications for Hackethal nailing in fracture treatment.
    • To assess the efficacy and safety of Hackethal nailing for specific fracture types.

    Summary:

    • The study restricted Hackethal nailing to middle-third shaft fractures of the upper extremity, excluding severe open fractures treated with external fixators.
    • Over 13 years, 53 humerus, 20 radius, 17 ulna, and 12 combined forearm fractures were treated with Hackethal nailing, with 10 cases combining it with plating.

    Impact:

    • This research helps refine the application of Hackethal nailing, optimizing its use in orthopedic practice.
    • The findings contribute to understanding the role of traditional techniques alongside modern fracture fixation methods.
