How Does Orthopedic Internal Fixation Failure Occur in Specific Anatomical Regions?
Meta Description:This Part II analysis explains how orthopedic internal fixation failure occurs in long bone shaft fractures and unstable intertrochanteric fractures, and outlines anatomy-driven prevention strategies, technical details, and biomechanical principles to reduce fatigue failure and malunion. (PAS Hook – Problem · Agitation · Solution) Orthopedic internal fixation failure is rarely caused by poor implants. […]
What Are the Five Deadly Pitfalls of Proximal Femoral Nail Fixation?
(PAS Hook — Paragraph 1) Hip surgeons often assume proximal femoral nail fixation is a beginner-level procedure — quick, routine, almost mechanical. Yet every year, implants cut out, nails penetrate the anterior cortex, elderly patients collapse into varus, and what should have been a straightforward fixation ends in catastrophic failure. The worst complications—cut-out, cut-through, anterior […]
