In silico biomechanical analysis of poller screw-assisted small-diameter intramedullary nail in the treatment of distal tibial fractures
Objective: To evaluate the biomechanical effects of Poller screws (PS) combined with small-diameter intramedullary nails in the treatment of distal tibial fractures at different locations and on different planes.Methods: Nine finite element (FE) models were used to simulate the placement of the intr...
