An osteosynthetic implant was created with a closed intramedullary fixation technique to treat proximal femoral fractures in the trochanter region.
PFN Nail (Proximal Femoral Nail) Specification
Rotational stability: The combination of a load-bearing femoral neck screw and a hip pin that promotes rotational stability ensures both intraoperative and postoperative safety.
The screw shoulder acts as an insertion safety stop, preventing the femoral neck screw from unintentionally slipping through the nail and into the femoral neck.
The nail can be easily placed and positioned in the medullary canal at an anatomical angle of 6°.
