    Author: Gualdrini G, Rollo G, Montanari A, Zinghi GF.
    Journal: Chir Organi Mov; 1996; 81(3):275-8. PubMed ID: 9009410.
    Abstract:
    The authors report 52 cases of aseptic nonunion of the tibia treated by intramedullary osteosynthesis. The means of synthesis used were the Küntscher nail, the Eiffel Tower Rush nail, and the Grosse-Kempf nail. Which means of synthesis was used depended on the site and the features of the nonunion. Healing occurred in all of the cases after an average of 5 months. Mean follow-up was 4.5 years.
