Why is Tibial Nail surgery necessary?
Tibial Intramedullary Nail remains the preferred treatment for unstable and displaced tibial shaft fractures in adults. The goals of surgical treatment are to restore the length, alignment, and rotation of the tibia and achieve fracture healing. The advantages of Intramedullary Nailing include minimal surgical trauma and appropriate preservation of the fracture’s blood supply. Additionally, Expert Tibial Nail provide adequate biomechanical fracture stability and act as load-sharing devices, allowing for early postoperative mobilization. Advances in intramedullary nail design and reduction techniques have expanded the indications for intramedullary nailing fixation, including proximal tibial fractures and fractures of the middle and distal thirds of the tibia.
What are the clinical applications of Tibial Nail Implant?
Stable fractures of the middle 1/3 of the tibia: transverse fractures, short oblique fractures, pseudarthrosis. Unstable fractures within 60% of the mid-tibial length: fractures near the metaphysis, long spiral fractures, segmental fractures, comminuted fractures, fractures with bone defects.
What are the main components of a tibial intramedullary nail system?
Usually the Tibial Nail system consists of tibial nail, locking bolt and end cap.
An internal spinal fixation system consists of a screw, a set screw, connection rod, and crosslink.
What are the advantages of our Interlocking Nail?
Orthopedic Nails
The lower profile at the proximal end
Controllable axial compression hole
The maximal comression distance is 7mm
9º anteflexion design for ease of nail insertion
Versatile proximal locking options:
Three innovative locking options, in combination with cancellous bone locking screws, increase the stability of the proximal fragment for proximal third fractures.
Two state of the art medio-lateral locking options enable primary compression or secondary controlled dynamization.
End Cap
End cap prevents ingrowth of tissue and facilitates nail extraction
0mm end cap sits flush with nail 5mm and 10mm end caps extend nail height if nail is over inserted
Cannulated
Self-locking recess for effortless end cap pick-up and ease of insertion
Locking Bolt
Cancellous bone locking screws:
Indicated for the three proximal locking options of all tibial nails diameters
Dual core design for optimized purchase in cancellous bone
Unicortical
Lengths: 40 mm–75 mm
Standard locking screws:
Larger cross section for improved mechanical resistance
Φ4.0 mm for Φ8.0 mm and Φ9.0 mm tibial nails, lengths: 28 mm–58 mm
Φ5.0 mm for Φ10.0 mm tibial nails, lengths: 28 mm–68 mm
