Tratamiento de las fracturas de la diáfísis femoral mediante clavo centromedular en cerrojo de Grosse-Kempf

We have retrospectively review seventy-seven femoral shaft fractures treated by Grosse-Kempf intramedullary nailing. All patients have been review monthly until fracture consolidation. The results in fifty two fractures were classified as excellent; in thirteen as good; in seven as fair, and in five as poor. In our experience, the Grosse-Kempf method has been found to be a good alternative for treatment of all femoral shaft fractures. Poor result cause predicted by technical errors.
