Treatment of pathological fractures of the humerus with Ender nails
Abstract
We have treated 16 consecutive cases of pathological fractures of the humerus with multiple Ender's nails introduced distally and without opening the fracture site. Stabilization was satisfactory in all cases and provided good pain relief and allowed early return of function. The technique is straightforward and has advantages over other methods of fixation.
