Tibiocalcaneal Arthrodesis Nails Manufacturers

Tibiocalcaneal arthrodesis nail is intended for use in tibio-talo-calcaneal arthrodesis including deformities of the hindfoot and the distal tibia. The standard length arthrodesis nail has a focal area of high strain adjacent to the proximal interlocking screw. It also has an increase in tensile strain along the posterior surface of the tibia at the level of the interlocking screw. The use of the standard length nail places the interlocking screw holes in an area of normally elevated strain in an arthrodesed ankle. The nail ending in the metaphysis of the tibia decreases the strain in the distal tibia, and may protect this region from the stress fractures.
