The question is very simple, but I can not find an answer to this.

What happens after removing the nails from the inside of the bone?

Does the hollow bone remain?

I thought the bones are already hollow naturally, I think you are referring to the the screw hole?

Dr Birkholtz answered this question in his thread.

QuoteGood question. Adults don't really have true bone marrow in their long bones. It is mostly fatty tissue. It seems that when nails are removed, this is what is left in the bone.

I really have to look for information that is accurate about this.

Maybe it's good to ask several doctors inside and outside the LL.
