title: [The interposition nail in diaphyseal bone defects and arthrodesis nail in failed knee-joint replacement].
abstract: Our clinical experience with different constructions of interposition and arthrodesis nails, used in 3 and 12 patients respectively, is presented. It has shown that cemented intramedullary nailing for the stabilization of long bones and the knee joint using an approach from the site of the defect is a useful additional means in reconstructive bone and joint surgery.
