In patients with traumatic brain injury and fractures
of long bones, it is often clinically observed that the rate of bone
healing and extent of callus formation are increased. However, the
evidence has been unconvincing and an association between such an
injury and enhanced fracture healing remains unclear. We performed
a retrospective cohort study of 74 young adult patients with a mean
age of 24.2 years (16 to 40) who sustained a

Non-operative treatment is usually employed in the treatment of femoral fractures in young individuals. Malunion, delayed union, joint stiffness, limb length discrepancy, psychological problems and delay in functional recovery are well known complications of conservative treatment. The length of hospital stay that will be a part of non-operative treatment will add to the cost of the treatment. We report our experience with intramedullary nailing of closed
