Abstract

While exchange nailing has been a useful technique for femur nonunion management, far proximal and distal nonunions present challenges that are difficult to correct with nails alone.

Below, we review the indications for blade plate usage and present a pertrochanteric nonunion case managed with a blade plate to review the technical steps needed for success.
