Combination photodynamic devices for repair and stabilization of a fractured or a weakened bone are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a combination photodynamic device includes a load bearing member and one or more conformable members connected to the load bearing member, the conformable member expandable from a deflated state to an inflated state. The load bearing member is designed to reside inside a cavity of fractured or weakened bone and act as internal bone fixation and stabilization device. The conformable member is designed to anchor the load bearing member inside a bone cavity, transform the load bearing member from a flexible state to a rigid state, contribute to fixating and stabilizing a fractured or a weakened bone, and provide longitudinal and rotational stability to a fractured or a weakened bone during the healing process or combinations thereof.
