Acceptable locations include the proximal tibia and the distal femur only. Pre-drilling is very important. These pins are contraindicated in diaphyseal bone, in the radius or ulna, and in the hard bone of the humeral condyle.
Rarely is more than one cancellous pin placed into a single ESF construct.
