Design Features of Multihole Tibial Interlocking Nail
Universal Use:
Ambidextrous Design: The nail is designed for use on both left and right tibia, enhancing surgical flexibility.
Anatomical Bend:
Ease of Insertion: The new anatomical bend allows for smoother insertion, conforming to the natural curvature of the tibia, which facilitates positioning during surgery.
Cannulated Design:
Guided Insertion: The cannulated structure permits easy insertion over a guide wire, promoting precision and reducing the risk of misalignment.
Locking Screws
Proximal Locking Screws:
Versatile Fixation: Five locking screws strategically placed to cover a variety of fracture patterns:
Two Oblique Screws: Positioned at 45 degrees, crossing in two different planes to enhance stability.
One Additional Oblique Locking Screw: Provides further stability in challenging fracture configurations.
Two Horizontal Screws: Offer mediolateral locking options, including one dynamic hole to accommodate physiological movement.
Distal Locking Screws:
Enhanced Stability:
Two Anteroposterior Locking Screws: For added fixation.
Two Mediolateral Locking Screws: To secure the nail against lateral forces.
Self-Tapping Locking Screws:
Secure Engagement: Self-tapping design ensures robust engagement with the bone, minimizing the risk of screw loosening.
Optimized Thread Design:
Closer Threading: Threads located closer to the screw head provide improved bone purchase in the near cortex, enhancing overall stability and fixation strength.
