Hypertrophic nonunion doesn't require grafting. Bone ends are viable, and the only problem is lack of stability. So a bigger nail is to be a complete solution.
In our region before closed nailing all hypertrophic nonunions since 60-s were treated by closed external fixation either in compression mode (no angulations and LLD) or with gradual traction if limb lengthening and/or axial alignment required...
