• Intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures
Contraindications
• A medullary canal obliterated by a previous
fracture or tumor
• Bone shaft having excessive bow or deformity
• Lack of bone substance or bone quality, which
makes stable seating of the implant impossible

functioning and the success of the implant

Warning:
This nail should only be used to treat a
periprosthetic fracture if the in situ device is firmly
fixed. When treating a periprosthetic fracture, the
nail should be positioned so that it does not come
in contact with the in situ device.
