    Un grupo de 26 fracturas conminutas de f茅mur, rotacionalmente inestables, fueron tratadas con clavo intramedular encerrojado tipo FMRP. En 22 casos la conminuci贸n afectaba a m谩s del 50% de la cortical. Del total de enclavados, 22 fueron est谩ticos y 4 din谩micos. La consolidaci贸n desde el punto de vista cl铆nico y radiol贸gico ocurri贸 en el 92% de los casos. En 2 casos se desarroll贸 un pseudoartrosis. S贸lo un paciente mostr贸 un acortamiento mayor de 1 cm. Una angulaci贸n mayor de 10掳 en cualquiera de los planos del espacio fue apreciada en 5 pacientes. No se produjo en ning煤n caso deformidad rotacional. El clavo intramedular encerrojado ha aumentado las indicaciones del enclavado intramedular en el tratamiento de las fracturas inestables de f茅mur. La incidencia de infecci贸n y pseudoartrosis es baja. La estabilidad del montaje permite una movilizaci贸n inmediata del paciente, rehabilitaci贸n temprana y menor estancia intrahospitalaria. El clavo FMRP disminuye el tiempo de fluoroscopia, un fresado con instrumentos flexibles y es m谩s barato que otros sistemas similares.Twenty six comminuted and rotationally unstable fractures of the femur were treated with the FMBP intramedullary locked nail. Twenty two of the fractures had comminution involving more than 50% of the cortex. Of the nailings, 22 were static and 4 dynamic. Clinical and radiographic union occurred in 92% of cases. There were 2 nonunions. There was one case of deep wound infection. Only one patient had a shortening greater than 1 cm. Angulation in any plane greater than 10掳 was noted in 5 patients. There were no instances of rotatory deformities. The interlocking nail has expanded the indications for the use of closed intramedullary nailing in the treatment of unstable femoral fractures. The incidence of infection and nonunion is low. Stability of the fractures allows immediate mobilization of the patients, early rehabilitation of the limb and shorter hospital stay. The FMRP nail eliminated fluoroscopy, flexible reamers and is cheaper as compared to other systems
