TYLOS
1 – Installing the patient making sco-
pic control possible (in profi le)
INDICATIONS
The TYLOS™ nail is used in cases of combined talocrural and subtalar arthrodeses,
as well as in certain forms of distal pseudarthrosis of the tibia when the ankle joint
cannot be preserved.
Length: 160, 200, 250 mm
Side locking with
a cortical screw
Posterior locking with a wedge-
type trans-calcaneal screw
The TYLOS™ ankle arthrodesis nail from the Be POD™ range has
a unique posterior locking system, thanks to implantation of a
trans-calcaneal screw of the threaded wedge type. This gua-
rantees considerable stability and thus reduces the risk of
disassembly of the system or migration of the screw.
INSTALLING THE PATIENT
The patient is placed in dorsal decubitus.
The leg to be operated is moved out of line and
raised in relation to the controlateral leg so as to
allow profi le controls with the X-ray image inten-
sifi er
(Fig. 1) .
