Reamer Breakage during Intramedullary Nailing in Tibial Shaft Fractures: A Case Report and Review of Literature

Reamer Breakage during Intramedullary Nailing in Tibial Shaft Fractures: A Case Report and Review of Literature

Background: Interlocked intramedullary nailing is the most common treatment for closed tibial fractures. Reaming is a fundamental step in this surgical technique, and reamer breakage is a rare yet challenging complication during this operation. Case Report: A 34-year old male with a tibial shaft fra...
