Evaluation of minimally invasive fixation with ESIN in the management of displaced mid-shaft clavicle fractures: a case series with minimum of 2 years follow-up

Abstract: <p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Over the last few years, operative treatment has become the standard for treatment of clavicle fractures. Both plating and intra-medullary pinning techniques are available for treating clavicle fractures. The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of minimally invasive technique using elastic stable intramedullary nailing (ESIN) in surgical treatment of displaced mid-shaft clavicle fractures<span lang="EN-IN">.</span></p>&l… Show more

“…Initially, it was used for children for whom cast treatment was not a viable solution but had soon been adopted for all diaphysis fractures. Elastic stable intramedullary nailing (ESIN) using Titanium Elastic Nail (TEN) or Stainless-Steel Nail (STEN) is nowadays employed for diaphysis fractures and metaphysis fractures for children, unstable fractures of the forearm, and some of the unstable fractures of the humerus and polytrauma, and for multiple injuries [3][4][5][6][7][8]. Due to its success, it has been introduced for several additional types of fractures: metaphysis, fragmented, pathological bone fracture, and fractures of small bones (such as the collarbone and metacarpal bones) [5][6][7][8][9][10][11].…”
