Summary
The paper presents results of numerical analysis of new form of expandable intramedullary nail (patent no. P382247) used in stabilization of proximal femur in adults. The obtained results can be used to optimize geometry of implants as well as mechanical properties of metallic biomaterial they are to be made of.
