Understanding Internal Fixation with Nails

A surgical procedure where a strong metal rod (nail) is inserted inside the bone to stabilize long bone fractures such as femur, tibia, and humerus fractures.

Why does the Internal Fixation with Nails deteriorate?

Long bone fractures become unstable due to muscle pull, trauma force, or bone displacement. Without internal support, the bone may heal incorrectly or not heal at all. Nails hold the bone firmly from the inside, ensuring correct alignment.

How does Internal Fixation with Nails help?

Intramedullary nailing stabilizes long bones from within the bone canal. It provides strong internal support, allows early walking, ensures proper alignment, reduces pain, and promotes faster bone healing with minimal soft tissue damage.

Benefits of Modern TKR Techniques:

Very strong internal stabilization
Early weight-bearing and faster walking ability
Minimal soft tissue damage
Ideal for femur, tibia, and humerus fractures
Lower infection risk than open plating
Excellent healing rates
Suitable for high-energy trauma and sports injuries

Is It Time for Internal Fixation with Nails

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, it may be time to consult a Internal Fixation with Nails specialist:

Severe limb pain especially after leg or arm injury
Inability to bear weight leg cannot support body weight
Visible deformity limb appears bent or rotated
Swelling & bruising due to internal bleeding
Abnormal movement fractured bone moves unnaturally

Choosing the Right Procedure

Not all Internal Fixation with Nails are the same. Dr. Hemendra Agrawal offers personalized treatment based on your specific condition.

TypeBest ForWhat It InvolvesRecovery Time
Intramedullary Nailing (IM Nailing)Femur, tibia, humerus, and long bone fracturesA metal nail inserted inside the bone canal6–12 weeks
Locked Intramedullary NailingUnstable or comminuted fracturesNail locked with screws at both ends10–14 weeks
Reamed & Unreamed NailingTrauma patients with different fracture patternsPreparing or not preparing the canal before nail insertion6–12 weeks

Intramedullary Nailing (IM Nailing)

The most common and powerful fixation method for long bone fractures, offering quick recovery and excellent stability.

Locked Intramedullary Nailing

Provides rigid support for fractures with multiple fragments and prevents rotation or shortening.

Reamed & Unreamed Nailing

Chosen based on fracture type and patient condition to maximize healing and stability.
