A femoral intramedullary nail is an orthopedic implant used for the fixation of femoral fractures, particularly femoral neck fractures.
Here are the main characteristics of this implant:
Implant Type: Femoral intramedullary nail, often referred to as the Femoral Neck Fixation System (FNS).
Targeted Joint/Bone: Femur, specifically the femoral neck for fractures.
Fixation Mechanism: It provides proximal and distal fixation using screws that pass through the nail and anchor into the bone.
Material: Made of titanium, a biocompatible and strong material.
Stability: Designed to provide improved angular and rotational stability, with the goal of reducing reoperations related to fixation complications.
