Intertan Intramedullary Nail Instrument Set for Hip Fractures | Orthopedic Trauma Surgical Kit

Advanced Intertan Intramedullary Nail Instrument Set for Hip Fracture Management

At OrthoPro, we recognize that intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures present unique challenges in orthopedic trauma surgery. Stability, compression, and resistance to rotation are paramount for successful outcomes. Our Intertan Intramedullary Nail Instrument Set is expertly designed to support these requirements. This comprehensive system provides surgeons with the specific tools needed to implant Intertan-type nails, which are renowned for their integrated interlocking screw mechanism that significantly reduces the risk of implant failure and “Z-effect” migration.

Designed for efficiency and precision, the OrthoPro Intertan Intramedullary Nail Instrument Set allows for a minimally invasive approach. The instrumentation is intuitive, reducing the learning curve and shortening operative time, which is critical when treating elderly patients with hip fractures.

Key Features and Engineering Excellence

The set is manufactured to the highest B2B export standards, combining durability with ergonomic design.

• Radiolucent Aiming Arms: The set features aiming arms constructed from high-performance Carbon Fiber or PEEK. This radiolucency is crucial during surgery as it provides an unobstructed view of the femoral head and neck under fluoroscopy, ensuring precise placement of the lag screws without metal artifacts blocking the image.
• Integrated Compression Tools: The instruments are specifically calibrated to facilitate the active linear compression mechanism characteristic of Intertan systems. This ensures the fracture gap is closed effectively to promote healing.
• High-Grade Materials: All cutting tools (drills, reamers) and hand instruments are crafted from medical-grade Stainless Steel and Aluminum alloys, offering excellent corrosion resistance and maintaining sharpness through repeated sterilization cycles.
• Modular Connections: Quick-coupling handles and drivers allow for rapid instrument exchange, streamlining the surgical workflow.

Comprehensive Instrument Configuration

The Intertan Intramedullary Nail Instrument Set is a complete solution, housed in a specialized graphic sterilization case with silicone brackets for secure transport. The kit includes the following essential components:

1. Entry Point and Canal Preparation

Correct entry is the foundation of a successful nailing procedure.

Guide Wires: The set includes 3.2mm threaded guide wires for initial positioning at the tip of the greater trochanter.

Entry Reamer/Awl: A robust, cannulated opening reamer protects the soft tissue while preparing the proximal femur for nail insertion.

Reduction Finger: Assists in reducing fracture fragments before the nail is introduced.

2. Insertion and Targeting Assembly

Insertion Handle: A heavy-duty handle that connects rigidly to the nail. It is designed to withstand impaction forces without damaging the implant threads.

Aiming Jig: The precise targeting arm ensures that the drill bits for the proximal screws align perfectly with the nail holes. The arm is lightweight to prevent sagging/drift during the procedure.

3. Integrated Screw Preparation

The defining feature of the Intertan system is its dual-screw or integrated screw configuration. Our set includes specialized tools for this step:

Protection Sleeves: A nested system of tissue protection sleeves, drill sleeves, and trocar guides.

Stepped Drills: Calibrated step drills are included to prepare the channel for the lag screws. These drills feature laser-etched depth marks and are color-coded for easy identification.

Anti-Rotation Bar: Tools to stabilize the femoral head during drilling and screw insertion.

4. Locking and Compression Instruments

Screwdrivers: High-torque screwdrivers (Stardrive/Hex) with self-retaining tips prevent screw drop.

Compression Driver: A specialized instrument used to engage the internal mechanism of the nail to apply compression across the fracture site post-insertion.

Distal Locking Tools: Standard drill bits (typically 4.0mm or 4.2mm) and depth gauges for distal interlocking.

5. Extraction Tools

The set is fully equipped for revision scenarios, including extraction bolts and slide hammer attachments compatible with the Intertan nail system.

Clinical Applications

This instrument set is indicated for the treatment of:

• Stable and unstable intertrochanteric fractures.
• High subtrochanteric fractures.
• Reverse oblique fractures.
• Non-unions and mal-unions of the proximal femur.

Quality Assurance and Sterilization

OrthoPro guarantees that every Intertan Intramedullary Nail Instrument Set undergoes rigorous quality control. The instruments are passivated to prevent rust and surface stains. The sterilization container is compatible with standard autoclave steam cycles (134°C) and is designed to facilitate proper steam penetration and drying.
