Comparison is made with the previous x-rays.
The left tibial intramedullary nail and screws and soft tissue surgical clips are again noted and appear unchanged in alignment. There is increased callus formation at the midshaft tibial fracture in comparison with the previous x-ray, however the fracture remains ununited, with no increase in bony bridging of the fracture site.
