Here, we present a series of patients treated with the FNS for internal fixation and report a 18% reoperation rate. This is lower than the average rate that has been previously reported in similar patient populations in the literature treated with alternative methods of internal fixation. Thus, the FNS appears to be a safe and effective option for treatment of these injuries.
