Clinical outcomes of closed reduction vs. small-incision-assisted open reduction with intramedullary nailing in complex comminuted femoral shaft fractures (AO/OTA 32-C): a retrospective cohort study

Clinical outcomes of closed reduction vs. small-incision-assisted open reduction with intramedullary nailing in complex comminuted femoral shaft fractures (AO/OTA 32-C): a retrospective cohort study

BackgroundIntramedullary nailing (IMN) is the preferred treatment owing to its minimally invasive nature, high healing rates, and reduced stress shielding. However, the optimal reduction method for complex comminuted fractures (AO/OTA 32-C) has been controversial. Closed reduction preserves blood su...
