No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The hypothesis is that intramedullary nailing of the ulna and plating of the radius will result in a superior outcome as evidenced by two primary end points:

1. a lower rate of implant pain
2. a lower re-operation rate to remove painful hardware.

Conditions
