Femoral Fracture Fixation Surgery: Intramedullary Nail - Medical Animation
This 3D medical animation shows the surgical steps to repair a severely fractured femur (broken leg) using an intramedullary nail device. The animation begins showing the anterior view of the pelvis and femur with the broken bone fragments aligned. In this orthopedic surgery animation, a medical device called a reamer hollows out the center of the femoral canal. Afterward, an intramedullary nail is tapped into place, providing stabilization for the healing bone. A screw is placed in the head of the femur to secure the nail.

"The illustrations have consistently been well documented, accurate and
timely. Most important though is that the illustrations demonstrate to
juries and claims people the persuasive power of visual communication. Our
firm has achieved multiple eight figure settlements and verdicts over the
past ten years... Medical Legal Art has been there with us on every case."

"Your firm is great to work with and, most importantly for me, you get the
job done on time and with the utmost professionalism. You should be proud of
all those you employ, from KJ to Ben B. I've been especially pleased over
the years with the work of Brian and Alice, both of whom seem to tolerate my
idiosycratic compulsion to edit, but I've not found a bad apple in the bunch
(and, as you know, I've used your firm a bunch!).
I look forward to our continued professional relationship."

"[Your staff] was extremely efficient, cooperative and gracious and [their]
efforts produced a demonstrative exhibit that we used effectively throughout
our trial. The jury verdict of $3,165,000.00 was, in no small measure, due
to the impact of the demonstrative evidence. You may be sure that we will
call again."
