Anatomic evaluation of radiographic landmarks for accurate straight antegrade intramedullary nail placement in the humerus

Anatomic evaluation of radiographic landmarks for accurate straight antegrade intramedullary nail placement in the humerus

Background: Neurovascular insult, nonunion, and iatrogenic rotator cuff injury are concerns when using an intramedullary nail (IMN) for proximal humerus fracture. The purpose of this study was to identify a reproducible starting point and intraoperative imaging for nail insertion optimizing nail dep...
