“…As locked implants that can be inserted from remote portals, ILNs have theoretical advantages including provision of adequate construct stability along with minimal disturbance of the fracture site, both of which may contribute to faster bone healing . Despite overall favorable clinical outcomes in human and veterinary medicine, including in cases of surgical revision, the reliability of conventional ILN designs in assuring fracture repair stability has been challenged . Indeed, acute construct instability, also referred to as slack, has been clinically documented and potentially could lead to inter‐fragmentary motion and subsequently delayed bone healing …”
