Operative Technique
To identify the accurate position, the
dashed wire of the target must appear
between the two solid wires at the
desired position. If the position is
incorrect the T2 Recon Nail position
may be corrected by ei ther pulling
backwards or pushing forwards
(Fig. 28).
The K-Wire can then be placed into
the femur and the targeting arm
is held in place until the K-Wire’s
position in the lateral view has
been determined. When positioned
correctly, the target will appear in the
fluoroscopic lateral view (Fig. 29).
If the dashed wire of the target ap -
pears between the two solid wires,
then advance the Recon Tissue
Protection Sleeve and Trocar as shown
in Fig. 21.
Warning:
Prior to advancing the K-Wire,
check the correct guidance
through the K-Wire Sleeve. Do
not use bent K-Wires.
Note:
The K-Wire inserted into the most
distal Lag Screw hole of the nail
helps in achieving the correct
positioning of the nail (depth and
rotation) with minimal resection
of bone in case correction of the
position is needed.
