Mechanical study of the safe distance between humerus shaft fracture and distal locking screws in antegrade nailing

Mechanical study of the safe distance between humerus shaft fracture and distal locking screws in antegrade nailing

Abstract Background Optimal positioning of distal locking screws in intramedullary humeral nailing remains uncertain, particularly the influence of the distance between the fracture plane and the proximal distal locking screw on construct stability. This study aims to evaluate the mechanical stabili...
