PFN Nails

Jindal Medi Surge Orthopedic Proximal Femoral Nail (PFN) Implants Specification. Rotational stability: Combining a hip pin which provides rotational stability with a load-bearing femoral neck screw ensures intra- and postoperative safety. Insertion safety stop: The screw shoulder prevents the femoral neck screw from undesired slippage through the nail into the femoral neck. An anatomical angle of 6° allows the nail to be inserted and positioned in the medullary canal with ease. Proximal Femoral Nail (PFN) permit insertion without reaming allowing a simplified, time saving surgical procedure with less blood loss. A choice of static or dynamic interlocking. The distal interlocking slot makes primary or secondary axial dynamization possible. The nail’s distal flexibility and optimal distance between the interlocking bolt and the tip of the nail minimize stress concentration and tension in the femoral shaft. PFN Short Indications: The short femoral nail is used for small stature. Pertrochanteric fractures. Intertrochanteric fractures. High subtrochanteric fractures. PFN Short Contraindications. Low subtrochanteric fractures. Femoral shaft fractures. Isolated or combined medial femoral neck fractures. PFN Long Indications. Low and extended subtrochanteric fractures. Ipsilateral trochanteric fractures. Combination of fractures (trochanteric area / shaft). Pathological fractures. PFN Long Contraindications. Isolated or combined medial femoral neck fractures. All implants are made from medical grade stainless steel & titanium alloy.
