Abstract
The Gamma nail (fixator) made of stainless steel, which has broken in the body, was subjected to examination. The fixator was removed from the patient femur. The fracture occurred in the area of the nail hole after two months' stay in the organism. The research included chemical composition, hardness of the Gamma nail material and the observation and analysis of the type of fracture. The research showed the fatigue failure of the Gamma nail
