Aim: We aimed to evaluate the clinical and radiological results of an intramedullary fixation system used in surgeries for fractures and deformities of osteogenesis imperfecta where we applied a new design corkscrew tipped intramedullary nailing.\udMaterials and Methods: Twenty extremities of 14 osteogenesis cases, who underwent surgery and to whom corkscrew tipped intramedullary treatment was applied, were retrospectively scanned. Ambulation, discrepancies in the lenght of extremities, deformities and joint mobility range were all noted before the operation. Postoperative union rates, complications and our experience regarding the nail were also evaluated.\udResults: Six tibia and 14 femurs were operated using corkscrew tipped telescopic nails. Two bones were operated due to non-union, while seven bones underwent surgery due to acute fractures and 11 bones due to deformities. All the bones were seen to have achieved the aimed union. No major complications were observed. Infection was present in two cases.\udConclusion: Corkscrew tipped telescopic nail is a safe and effective method of fixation in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta
