Femoral Shaft Fractures
Femoral shaft fractures can give way to significant tissue morbidity, emphasizing the need for prompt surgical intervention. Fracture pattern type will help determine when fixation via antegrade or retrograde intramedullary nailing or open reduction internal fixation is most appropriate.

-
Tibial Shaft Fractures
Surgical management for tibial shaft fractures typically involves the use of open reduction internal fixation or intramedullary nailing. Further surgical intervention is warranted in the presence of additional polytrauma.
