Expert Femur Nail

Expert Femur Nail by Stahlmann Pro is a cannulated intramedullary implant designed for femur fracture fixation. Its anatomical profile, 5° proximal bend, and multiple locking configurations provide options for appropriately selected femur shaft fractures and documented reconstruction applications.

Choosing a fixation system requires consideration of fracture location, bone anatomy, implant dimensions, and compatible components. The system offers separate left and right configurations, five shaft diameters, and seven nail lengths to support this selection process.

Stahlmann Pro welcomes enquiries from orthopedic surgeons, hospitals, procurement teams, and medical distributors in Africa, Latin America, and Russia.

Expert Femur Nail Design and Features

Anatomical Profile

The nail incorporates a 5° proximal bend and an anatomical shape intended to accommodate femoral anatomy. Selecting the appropriate length, diameter, and side remains essential because canal geometry varies between patients.

Cannulated Construction

The cannulated design supports guide-wire-assisted insertion using compatible instrumentation. Guide-wire specifications and the intended insertion approach should be confirmed from the selected product’s instructions.

Proximal and Distal Locking

The catalogue describes three proximal locking holes with reconstruction locking capability. Distally, the nail features two static locking holes and one dynamic locking slot.

These options allow different fixation configurations. Their use depends on the fracture, selected components, and treatment plan.

Left and Right Configurations

Separate left and right models are listed. The side designation should be included in every order alongside the nail diameter, length, and product code.

Expert Femur Nail Locking Options

Standard Static Locking

Static locking uses the designated screw positions to restrict axial movement and rotation between the nail and bone. It helps maintain the selected relationship between fracture fragments when a fixed construct is required.

Screw number and placement depend on fracture geometry, available bone fixation, and the system’s instructions. Static locking does not independently guarantee healing or a particular recovery time.

Dynamic Locking

Dynamic locking permits defined axial movement through a designated locking slot while retaining rotational control through the selected construct.

This option requires assessment of fracture stability, alignment, and the risk of shortening. It should not be selected solely because early weight-bearing is desired.

Compression and Dynamization

The catalogue identifies compression and dynamization features associated with dedicated locking slots.

Intraoperative compression brings suitable fracture surfaces closer together through the supported mechanism. Secondary dynamization is a later adjustment to the fixation construct when clinically indicated.

These are distinct interventions requiring compatible components and surgical assessment. Neither should be presented as a guaranteed solution for delayed healing or nonunion.

Indications and Reconstruction Configuration

Standard Locking Indications

The supplied catalogue describes standard locking for femur shaft fractures requiring intramedullary stabilization. This may include simple or complex shaft patterns when appropriate alignment and fixation can be achieved.

The surgeon assesses fracture characteristics, bone quality, and available fixation before selecting the construct.

Reconstruction Locking Indications

The catalogue describes reconstruction locking for selected femur shaft fractures associated with a femoral neck fracture on the same side.

This configuration accommodates screws directed toward the femoral neck and head while the nail supports shaft fixation. It requires the corresponding compatible reconstruction components.

Any additional application must follow the product’s documented indications. Reconstruction capability does not make the nail suitable for every isolated hip fracture.

Anti-Rotation Component

The 6.4 mm cannulated anti-rotation screw is described as assisting rotational control of the femoral neck fragment during reconstruction fixation. Required screw length and compatibility must be confirmed for the selected system.

Contraindications

The supplied catalogue lists:

• Isolated femoral neck fractures.
• Isolated intertrochanteric fractures.
• Isolated subtrochanteric fractures.
• Skeletally immature patients.
• Active local or systemic infection.
• Severe bone loss or inadequate bone quality preventing stable fixation.
• Other patient-specific contraindications to intramedullary nailing.

A shaft fracture with an associated neck fracture is different from an isolated neck fracture. Consult the applicable instructions for the complete indications, contraindications, warnings, and precautions.

Compatible Components

End Cap

The end cap engages the proximal internal thread and is designed to limit tissue ingrowth into the nail’s proximal opening. The catalogue describes a flush 0 mm option and extended options for adjusting proximal extension.

Its cannulated design supports guide-wire-assisted placement with compatible instruments.

Ø4.9 mm Self-Tapping Locking Screw

The 4.9 mm locking screw features a self-tapping thread and 3.5 mm hexagonal drive. Required lengths and quantities depend on the planned fixation configuration.

Ø6.4 mm Cannulated Anti-Rotation Screw

This reconstruction component is described as assisting rotational control of the femoral neck fragment. It has a self-tapping thread, cannulated construction, and 3.5 mm hexagonal drive.

The illustration identifies a 2.5 mm wire passage. Confirm the specified guide wire and instrument compatibility before use.

Clinical Planning and Follow-Up

The intended insertion route, canal preparation, and locking configuration must follow the selected implant’s instructions. Antegrade and retrograde insertion should not be assumed to be interchangeable for every nail.

Postoperative weight-bearing and rehabilitation depend on the injury, fixation stability, and healing progress. The treating surgeon determines the appropriate activity level and follow-up schedule.
