Interventions
endoprosthetic reconstruction
This is a type of surgery in which the affected part of the bone and joint is removed, and replaced by a prosthesis.
Intramedullary nailing
This is a type of surgery in which the affected bone is stabilized by a nail. The affected part could be removed or retained. If removed, the defect is filled with bone cement.
Open reduction internal fixation with plate and screws
This is a type of surgery in which the affected part of the bone is visualized completely, after the reduction is achieved, the fixation is provided with appropriate plates and screws. Again the affected part could be removed or retained. If removed, the defect is filled with bone cement.
