Summary

The interlocking nails have now become an established method of internal fixation.

This 3rd edition incorporates many new case studies, and new bold changes of concept like locking plates replacing interlocking nailing in many cases, along with introduction of nail extraction device. Begins with a brief overview of the history, and biomechanics of the technique, including a chapter covering the difficulties, complications and special intra-operative situations.

Pre-conditions for bridge plating, its indications and biomechanical basis. Demonstrates the diverse types of nails and numerous methods of usage including introduction of better nail designs, innovations in interlocking techniques after the universal availability of image intensifiers.
