The intramedullary nails can provide for fixation of comminuted fractures that are difficult to treat with conventional methods. In some aspects, the patient is a human patient and the fracture is a Mason type II radial head fracture or a Mason type III radial head fracture. Methods of fixation of epiphyseal fractures using the intramedullary nails of the present disclosure are also described.
