The intramedullary fixation system is represented by Gamma nails, PFNA, and InterTan Intramedullary Nail.
The intramedullary fixation is a closed reduction, with a small incision, short surgical time, and less intraoperative bleeding. At the same time, the femoral nail fixation is axial, which conforms to the biomechanical properties of the human body. It can allow patients to get out of bed early and facilitate postoperative functional recovery.
InterTan interlocking nail advantages
1. The proximal cross-section of the InterTan main nail adopts a trapezoidal design, similar to a joint prosthesis handle, which increases the contact area between the nail body and the medial wall of the femur, and has good medial support stability.
2. The InterTan Orthopedic Interlocking Nails head and neck tension nail is gradually screwed in, and the fractured end does not need to withstand the impact force generated by hammering. By screwing in the lower compression nail, it interlocks with the thread of the tension nail, providing stronger compression effect on the fractured end. At the same time, the compression process can also promote the reduction of the fractured end.
3.Although the insertion of two screws may sacrifice some bone, the combined screw formed by the two screws has stronger anti rotation and anti inversion effects, which is beneficial for the postoperative recovery of Hip Joint function in patients.
