Incarrow nailing
Intramedullary nailing can be used for shaft fractures of a large long bone, such as the femur, tibia, or humerus. For this purpose, an intramedullary nail is driven into the medullary cavity of the bone; this is called intramedullary splinting. This method has the advantage that the fracture does not have to be opened and the incision is relatively small. Additional locking may be performed at one or both ends.
