Computational Simulation of a Femoral Nail Fracture

Femoral nails are used to provide fixation for fractured long bones. These constructs simultaneously provide stability and union in nearly 10% of cases of premature failure. The goal of this investigation was to develop and test different models of the femur using cephalomedullary nail fixation. The...
