Operative Technique
Fig. 52
Repeat the locking procedure for the
insertion of the second 5mm Fully
Threaded Locking Screw into the
oblong hole in a static position
(Fig. 52).
The
T2 Recon Nail
may be used in the
dynamic locking mode. When the
fracture pattern permits, dynamic
lock ing may be utilized for transverse,
rotationally stable fractures. While
dynam ic locking can only be
performed at the end of the nail, this
will require a freehand distal targeting
of the oblong hole in a dynamic
position. This al lows the nail to move
and the fracture to settle while
torsional stability is maintained.
Note:
As an alternative for distal
locking, the guided distal
targeting system can be used. For
details, please refer to the separate
operative techniques (Distal
Targeting System Gamma3 Long
Nail R2.0, T2 Recon nail R2.0) or
ask Stryker Representative for
further assistance.
Release the Nail Holding Screw using
the Screwdriver Shaft, Ball Tip and
T-Handle. Then remove the Targeting
Arm to complete surgery.
