A comminuted fracture of the talus with six steel nails is more serious.
1. If there is a comminuted fracture, but the displacement is not obvious, in this case there is no need for steel nails, only need to be immobilized with a plaster. But if there is obvious displacement, this case will be recommended to play steel nail fixation. The fact that six pins have been inserted indicates that the degree of comminution is more serious.
Comminuted fracture of the talus has many sequelae, which may lead to traumatic osteoarthritis, joint effusion, joint stiffness, localized pain and synovial damage.
2. The patient can not undergo MRI after the nail, MRI is a strong magnetic field, which will produce a strong attraction to the nail, and it will easily displace the nail, which will have serious adverse consequences for the patient.
Comminuted fracture of the talus with six steel nails, need to strictly follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment and rehabilitation training.
