Finite element analysis modeling of plates versus intramedullary nails in closed comminuted midshaft tibial fractures

Background: Tibial shaft fractures are usually treated by interlocking nails or plates. The ideal implant choice depends on many variables. Aim: To assess the mechanical behavior of interlocking nails and plates in the treatment of closed comminuted midshaft fractures of the tibia using finite eleme...
