| Core Tip |
The purpose of our study was to evaluate patient and fracture-related factors associated with distal interlocking screw backout after retrograde femoral nailing with the DePuy Synthes Retrograde Femoral Nail-Advanced Retrograde Femoral Nailing System. Older age was significantly associated with higher rates of screw backout, with affected patients averaging 68 years compared to 38 years in the non-backout group. Fracture lines located closer to the joint line on both anterior-posterior and lateral radiographs were associated with increased risk of screw backout. No significant associations were found between screw backout and comorbidities such as smoking, diabetes, or body mass index. These findings suggest that certain fracture patterns and older patients may require careful consideration when using the DePuy Synthes Retrograde Femoral Nail-Advanced Retrograde Femoral Nailing System device. |
