Summary

Although isolated fixation methods, such as intramedullary nails or plate fixation, are commonly employed, certain fracture patterns-particularly comminuted, osteoporotic, or unstable fractures- represent a challenge to achieve stable fixation and restoring normal anatomy .

Dual fixation, combining an intramedullary nail with a low-profile 2.7-mm mini locked plate, aims to capitalize on the strengths of both techniques-a concept known as "orthogonal or hybrid stabilization". This combined approach provides enhanced biomechanical stability, allows for early mobilization by sharing the mechanical load, and minimizes the risk of non-union or hardware failure. Studying the clinical and radiological outcomes of this dual fixation strategy is essential to establish its efficacy and safety in managing complex distal ulna fractures.
