1998 The Effect of Unreamed, Limited Reamed and Standard Reamed Intramedullary Nailing on Cortical Bone Porosity and New Bone Formation

Location: http://www.hwbf.org/ota/am/ota98/otapa/OTA98907.htm

OTA Abstract 1998
The purpose of this investigation was to compare the effects of unreamed nail insertion and limited or standard canal reaming, prior to insertion of an intramedullary nail, on cortical bone porosity and new bone formation.
Conclusions: The technique of limited reaming may be advantageous for the treatment of tibial...

Temperature Elevation in Cortical Bone during Intramedullary Reaming and the Effect of Intermittent IM Irrigation and Sharp Reamers

Location: http://www.hwbf.org/ota/am/ota98/otapo/OTP98051.htm

OTA paper 1998
To determine if intramedullary reaming causes temperature elevation in cortical bone of sufficient magnitude to cause thermal necrosis. Secondly to determine if intermittent IM irrigation or the use of sharp reamers will reduce this temperature elevation.
linical Application: Whenever possible, sharp reamers should be employed. In patients who require...
