Abstract
This article presents a practical technique for distal intramedullary nail locking based on fluoroscopic triangulation. Unlike traditional methods, which require precise orientation of the C-arm to obtain perfect circles on radiographs, this approach allows locking to be performed with less radiation exposure and surgical time. The technique does not require additional equipment. It is thus proposed as a safe and efficient technique for distal locking.

本文介绍一种实用的基于透视三角测量的远端髓内钉锁定技术。与传统方法不同,传统方法需要精确定位c臂以在x线片上获得完美的圆形,该方法可以在较少的辐射暴露和手术时间下进行锁定。这项技术不需要额外的设备。因此,它是一种安全有效的远端锁定技术。本文引用方式:Barroso MM, Blanco JC, de Armas JN等。一种无需特殊内固定的髓内钉远端锁定的三角技术。创伤肢体重建2025;20(1):47-49。
期刊介绍:
Strategies in Trauma and Limb Reconstruction is dedicated to surgeons, allied medical professionals and researchers in the field of orthopaedics and trauma. The scope of the journal is to discuss the fields of skeletal injury, and the complications thereof, congenital and acquired limb deformities and deficiencies, and orthopaedic-related infection, together with their surgical and non-surgical treatments. The journal publishes original articles, reviews, case reports, descriptions of new or recognised treatment techniques, forum discussions of clinical scenarios and relevant correspondence. It aims to provide a widely accessible source of useful information to practitioners in the field through the problem- or technique-based approach of published articles.
