title: [Effect of the slot on the failure of medullary nails by buckling and bending loads].
abstract: The influence of the localisation of the slot in intramedullary femoral nails is considered experimentally with respect to a possible new accident. It was found, that a ventral slot gives best behaviour of plastic deformation as well as in the load-displacement-curve. If the region of the slot is loaded by compression, great plastic torsion and buckling effects can be seen.
