18th Annual Meeting of the Orthopaedic Trauma Association New-generation tibial nails incorporate multiple holes in different planes in order to maximize options for interlocking and allow nailing of fractures near the proximal and distal ends of the tibia. Russell Weisz, MD,[25] from Tampa General Hospital in Tampa, Florida, presented "Distal Fourth...

Abstract OTA paper 2004
Conclusion/Significance: Plating of humeral shaft fractures has traditionally been performed with 4.5-mm dynamic compression plates, broad or narrow, with good results, and this method is treated as our control group in this study. The smaller 3.5-mm plate offers the theoretical advantage of more holes per unit length,...
