Design rationale

Anatomical shape, 6° angle

The anatomical design of the nail is intended to fit the femur. Its medial-lateral angle of 6° allows insertion at the tip of the greater trochanter.

Flexible tip

The flexible tip eases insertion and reduces stress on the bone at the tip of the nail.

Blade into the femoral head

The blade is inserted over a guide wire through a targeting device and impacted into the femoral head. It is designed to compact the cancellous bone around it instead of removing it, and the targeting device aligns blade and nail without free-hand drilling.
