ORTHMED® Femoral Nail System is best suited to fractures in the diaphyseal region, but
where necessary, can be used for fractures situated in the region extending from just
below the intact lesser trochanter to just above the supracondylar region.The procedure is
applicable to any fracture within these boundaries, whatever the degree of comminution.
Open fractures often require a different management, and an external fixator may be
considered more appropriate in some instances. |
