Purpose To summarize the evolution of intramedullary nailing, highlight important
milestones, introduce the atmosphere of the era concerning the first uses and development …

This article aims to review the biomechanical evolution of intramedullary nailing and
describe the breakthrough concepts which allowed for nail improvement and its current …

The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanical feasibility of a hybrid
Glass/Flax/Epoxy composite material for bone fracture fixation such as fracture plates. These …

Background and objectives Composite bone plates are proposed for fracture fixation in
periprosthetic femoral fracture. Metallic plates, having high stiffness compared to bone lead …

Clinical findings, manufacturer instructions, and surgeon's preferences often dictate the
implantation of distal femur locked plates (DFLPs), but healing problems and implant failures …

Bone fracture plates are used to stabilize fractures while allowing for adequate compressive
force on the fracture ends. Yet the high stiffness of conventional bone plates significantly …

Abstract Background The Ti–6Al–4V alloy and 316L stainless steel are widely used
biocompatible implant materials for repairing bone fractures and their mechanical properties …

The optimal balance between mechanical environment and biological factors is crucial for
successful bone healing, as they synergistically affect bone development. Any imbalance …

Abstract Epoxy (EP)/Chitosan (CTS) nanocomposites was successfully prepared by
compression moulding method. The morphological characterization on EP/CTS …

Periprosthetic bone loss in response to total hip arthroplasty is a serious complication
compromising patient's life quality as it may cause the premature failure of the implant …
