Abstract


The treatment of the tibia diaphysis fractures with Küntscher nail method is preferable because of its successfull results. This operative treatment can be done with open or close style. When the nail is stuck with an open method infection may occur and even the bone ends can't build callus but with close method the fracture ends do not get contect with outside and don't get trauma so complications don't appear. The stability in fracture ends is exact and strong for that reason patients can regain their activity in a short time. The close nailing can be done with the help of distarctor. During the ten recent years the treatments of 25 tibia diaphysis fractures with Küntscher nail are shown on the diagram 8 close nail and 17 open nail two of open nail cases have shown infections.
