Retrograde intramedullary nail versus External fixator in arthrodesis of Charcot ankle: A Systematic Review

Ahmad Muhammad Abdel Aziz Borham;

Abstract


There is evidence that IMN could yield better results than EF for tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis. Based on this review, IMN generated higher rate of fusion with lesser complications than EF. In the clinical context of ulcer presence on the plantar aspect of the foot, the EF might be a better solution, particularly in diabetic patients.
