What is an intramedullary nail?
Interlocking nail is a medical device used in orthopedic surgery to stabilize and support fractured long bones such as the femur, tibia, and humerus. This innovative technology revolutionizes the treatment of fractures, providing a minimally invasive treatment option that promotes faster healing and recovery.
The integrated compression screw and lag screw thread together to generate push/pull forces that hold compression after instruments are removed and eliminate Z-effect.
Preloaded Cannulated Set Screw allows for creation of a fixed angle device or facilitates postoperative sliding.
The InterZan Femoral Nail is indicated for fractures of the femur including simple shaft fractures, comminuted shaft fractures, spiral shaft fractures, long oblique shaft fractures and segmental shaft fractures; subtrochanteric fractures; intertrochanteric fractures; ipsilateral femoral shaft/neck fractures; intracapsular fractures; nonunions and malunions; polytrauma and multiple fractures; prophylactic nailing of impending pathologic fractures; reconstruction, following tumor resection and grafting; bone lengthening and shortening.
