Abstract
AbstractAntibiotic impregnated cement coated intramedullary nails (ACCINs) have been used in clinical practice for many years and have been shown to help eradicate infection in tibial osteomyelitis while providing stability. We present a novel technique for preparation using bronchoscopy tubing, as well as technical tips and a review of the literature, for ease of preparation and potential subsequent retrieval.
