That procedure was very interesting I enjoy watching different techniques Let's help our bones get back to normal

I in fact had one of these puppies installed the other day. 10/10 fun piece of hardware

Amazing Video

thank you very much for uploading sir

Just broke my fibula and tibia last week. Had a very painful ambulance ride and had my shoes and clothes cut off me while I wollered in pain until the gave me a sedative and set my leg back into place. Then surgery. As of now the little bone was untouched but everytime I move around the bone snaps and moves so surgeon said he might have to go in and stabilize it. I'm looking at a possibility of 2 more surgeries. I'm already sick of it and don't want another 2 day stay in hospital. This is by far the worst pain I've ever felt. Thanks for sharing, I was wondering what he did to me lol

I feel for you - I've been in a similar boat. Isn't this video great though, to see the actual method used to insert the nail into the tibia/etc? I recently grenaded my right lower leg myself. Comminuted fracture of the tibia (two breaks total, leaving the tibia in 3 pieces instead of 1), and broke the fibula off at both top and bottom of the leg (2 breaks there). Oh, and broke my ankle in 2 places. I hear you on the ambulance ride bro - I couldn't even stand up after I did mine, had to get picked up by a paramedic and hold on to him like we were dancing a waltz just to get to the stretcher. Then he cut off my pant leg, and said..."oh, ya, that's broken for sure man, there are bones sticking out in 2 places (which was my tibia bones as it also was a compound fracture, yay)." Anyhow, I had to wait almost 2 days for them to fly in the nail in the video and a couple other parts (screws and the plate on the ankle they also used). That was some fun pain, let me tell you, waiting with a shattered leg, trying to watch reruns of Stargate SG1 on the hospital TV system to take my mind off the fact that I might not walk on my right leg ever again. It's been a battle. 2 surgeries now and done, I can walk, badly, as I was stuck in a wheel chair with a cast on my right for several months, then an air cast for 3 more, before I was cleared to have my right leg bear weight, as it sometimes takes a year or more my surgeon said, so I feel both lucky, blessed, and even proud of myself for doing all the rehab properly with urgency, and getting ahead of schedule. Still is always stiff, and often sore...very sore. Again, I'll count my blessings that I've rejoined the world of the ambulatory, albeit one of the slower people now.

I did the same...5 surgeries on that leg to fix it all up. A year and a half. It's finally healing now.

A month ago had this procedure after compound fracture of tibia and fibula about 3 inches above ankle. Surgeon did non treat fibula. Thanks for this informative video.

It depends on the level of the fracture of the fibula, so sometimes it is not necessary

Is this normal? it's the 10th day and I've been practicing for 4 days and it's not getting better.

How much weight can an 8 mm nail handle?

Had this on 5th December, now getting rest at home. I also broke my fibula. Be careful when sledding. Went with a speed of a car, befriended tree with my legs outstretched, left leg be like cracckk, then I won an ambulance ride. Hill was steep, with some ice on it, and some obstacles near sledding path.

They just did a direct replacement on me. I thought they were going to use this device, but they were able to close the gap during installation of the new nail. The bone ends are now up close and touching each other.

I had this done three years ago. My knee hurts.
