Hip or Knee? Best approach for precise 2 insertion?

Edit Post

Will be doing precise 2 femur and tibia in one leg at a time. Still have to decide whether I want the femur nail to be inserted via the hip or the knee. What’s the best approach for the insertion?

He did. It has pros and cons.

Why?

To clarify: This procedure will be femur + tibia in one procedure (only one leg). As far as i know tibia must be done via the knee. So he will do one nail through the knee anyways. Does it matter if he inserts a second nail via the knee as well? Does that have an additional impact? Apparently the hip affects your gait and walking in a worse way.
