Use of end caps in elastic stable intramedullary nailing of femoral and tibial unstable fractures in children: Preliminary results in 11 fractures

Abstract

These results seem to prove the advantage of using end caps when performing ESIN in lower limb shaft fractures in children. A longer follow-up that includes more patients and a randomised prospective study should be carried out in the future to determine more precisely the indications of this new device.
