  • Page 18 Inserting the nail Note: If nail insertion is difficult, choose a smaller diameter tibial nail or ream the medullary canal to a larger diameter. Important: Confirm that the nail is securely connected to the insertion handle, especially after hammering, using either the 8 mm ball hex screwdriver or the cannulated shaft with 8 mm hex.

  • Page 20: Locking Options

    lockIng oPtIonS Proximal segment fractures for proximal fractures, it is recommended to lock the nail with the knee in extension. this neutralizes the deforming forces on proximal fragments caused by the quadriceps mechanism, and relieves the pressure on the soft tissue usually associated with tibial nail insertion instruments.

  • Page 36 Important: Drilling for the oblique proximal locking requires special attention. To avoid lesion of the popliteal artery, the tibial nerve and the common peroneal nerve, as well as damage to the proximal tibiofibular joint, drilling must be stopped immediately before penetrating the far cortex. Note: When locking with the leg in full extension, it is recommended to use the Tibial Nail–EX insertion handle...
