      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: intramedullary nailing.  The intramedullary canal will be over-reamed several sizes, and a nail at least 1 mm (ranging from 1 to 3 mm) larger in diameter will be inserted. The average initial nail diameter. Intervention 2: Intervention group: plate augmentation.   An augmentation plate with autogenous bone grafting will be performed after exposing the nonunion site using the lateral approach. Cortico-cancellous bone grafts from ipsilateral iliac crest will be harvested simultaneously by another surgical team. We will use dynamic compression plates (DCP) with eight holes.</i_freetext>
