Guide Wire Ball Tip

A ball-tipped guide wire is a specialized orthopedic implant used in trauma surgeries, particularly for intramedullary nailing of long bone fractures. The ball tip facilitates easier navigation through the medullary canal and helps in aligning the wire with the fracture site. When inserted, the ball tip can prevent the guide wire from slipping out of position, allowing accurate placement. Such a guide wire is particularly useful for passing through tight or curved anatomical areas, as it can be bent slightly without losing its functionality. It serves as a pathway for reamers and nails, which are inserted to stabilize the fracture.
