Entwicklung eines Tibiamarknagels auf der Basis anatomischer Untersuchungen der intraossären Gefäße

The design of the tibial medullary nail can be improved in order to preserve intraosseus vessels by osteosynthesis of the tibia. The nutrient artery of the human tibia enters the compacta in an average height of 33% dorsally and is leaving it in a height of 50% of the tibial length. In the medullary cavity the vessel splits up. The main branch continues the distal course on the dorsal/dorsolateral side of the medullary cavity (endosteal). In the distal diaphysis this endosteal vessel is of great importance, since the periosteal blood supply in this region with high incidence of pseudarthrosis is guaranteed only by branches of the anterior tibial artery. Using a new unreamed tibial nail, which is flattened dorsally, it is possible to preserve the endostal main artery of the tibia.
