Why bone grafting and nailing ? Seems you have undergone one surgery prior . There is no clear data regarding union rate following procedure . Fracture healing depends on many factors which can be modifiable or non modifiable .

Indication for nailing and grafting is decided by the surgeon. Results are usually gratifying. Give your ortho surgeon, a free hand to manage the case.
