This study indicates that the FNS is a potential safe and effective CRIF modality. Age (< 65 years) is an important factor to keep in mind when selecting patients for CRIF as it is related to lower risk for failure. Future long-term follow-up studies with larger populations should indicate if functional results and risk factors for failure are comparable to SHS or CHS.
