Abstract
Objective: To analyze the effect of interlocking intramedullary nail fixation on treating bone nonunion after extremity trauma fracture. Methods: 80 patients with bone nonunion after extremity trauma fracture were selected and divided into two groups according to different treatment methods, each group having 40 cases. The control group performed compression plate fixation, and the observation group performed interlocking intramedullary nail fixation. A comparison of surgical indexes, bone metabolism indexes, and surgical effects was done. Results: The observation group had shorter operation time and postoperative hospitalization time, the levels of various bone metabolism indexes were higher than those of the control group one month after operation, and the total effective rate of the operation was higher than that of the control group (P＜0.05). Conclusion: Interlocking intramedullary nail fixation is more effective in the treatment of post-traumatic fracture of the extremities with bone nonunion.
