Femoral-shaft fractures and nonunions treated with intramedullary nails: The role of dynamisation.

Dynamisation of a previously interlocked intramedullary nail is believed to stimulate an osteogenic response due to increased load across the fracture site. The purpose of this study was to retrospectively investigate fracture patterns that could tolerate dynamisation without the risk of major complications.
