2016年7月22日 · Cephalomedullary nailing is the surgical stabilization of the fracture with an intramedullary device usually inserted through the piriformis fossa, the tip or lateral greater trochanter, or the medial greater trochanter.

2025年3月14日 · Intertrochanteric Fractures are common extracapsular fractures of the proximal femur at the level of the greater and lesser trochanter that are most commonly seen following ground-level falls in the elderly population. Diagnosis is made with orthogonal radiographs of the hip. MRI is most helpful to evaluate occult hip fractures.

Introduction: Intramedullary nailing (IMN), which is a common method for treating subtrochanteric fractures, is conducted as cephalomedullary (CMN) or reconstruction (RCN) nailing. Numerous studies have reported the effectiveness of CMN, which requires a shorter surgery time and provides stronger fixation strength with blade-type devices.

In summary, this meta-analysis reports on clinically relevant outcomes SHS vs. CMN in the treatment of intertrochanteric hip fractures. Using the most recently published data, we found that the only notable difference is patients treated with CMN have a …

Numerous studies have reported the effectiveness of CMN, which requires a shorter surgery time and provides stronger fixation strength with blade-type devices.

Cephalomedullary nail (CMN) length for intertrochanteric femur fractures without subtrochanteric extension has been an ongoing debate. The authors hypothesize that increasing nail length would result in increasing surgical time, greater incidence of ...

Cephalomedullary nails (CMN) are being frequently used worldwide in the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. In the United States and Europe, intramedullary repair of intertrochanteric fractures has increased significantly from 3% to 67% . In the late twentieth century, the goal of surgical research on internal fixation was to reduce ...

This study compared fixation stability of the proximal fragments and their mechanical characteristics in proximal femur models of unstable basicervical IT fractures fixed by CMN using 3 different types of the femoral head fixation.

ical stabilization of intertrochanteric hip fractures. The two most common implants used for stabilizing intertrochanteric fractures are a cephalomedullary nail (CMN) or a sliding hip screw (SHS). The choice of implant is dependent on clinicopathologic variables, chiefly the fracture’s orientation.7,8 Stable fracture patterns are those that co...

Current standard of care for these fractures includes fixation with either a cephalomedullary nail (CMN) or a sliding hip screw (SHS). The purpose of this study was to compare failure and medical complications of intertrochanteric femoral fractures repaired by CMN or SHS.
