Design Features<br />
Two-screw integrated interlocking provides:<br />
Improved resistance to femoral head rotation and cutout<br />
Active compression achieved through a linear motion without rotation<br />
4° Lateral Offset <strong>for</strong><br />
Trochanteric insertion<br />
Preloaded Cannulated Set Screw converts<br />
construct to a fixed angle device or allows<br />
<strong>for</strong> post operative sliding.<br />
Two points of fixation<br />
to improve resistance<br />
of cutout<br />
Trapezoidal nail shape provides additional<br />
strength and <strong>stability</strong> in the proximal femur<br />
during flexion extension similar to hip<br />
stem prosthesis.<br />
Optional neck angles<br />
125°, 130° and 135°<br />
Distal Slot <strong>for</strong><br />
static or 5mm<br />
of dynamization<br />
and rotational<br />
<strong>stability</strong><br />
Small Proximal Diameter of the nail<br />
promotes preservation of the lateral<br />
wall of the greater trochanter and<br />
Gluteus Medius Tendon.<br />
Clothespin Tip <strong>for</strong><br />
stress modulation<br />
in the femoral<br />
shaft which<br />
reduces stiffness<br />
that can cause<br />
thigh pain and<br />
periprosthetic<br />
fracture<br />
Optional Distal<br />
Diameters <strong>for</strong> optimal<br />
fit in femoral canal<br />
