Titanium Elastic Nail (TEN) System | Pediatric Flexible Intramedullary Fixation | Orthopedic Trauma Implants

The Titanium Elastic Nail (TEN) system is the gold standard for treating diaphyseal fractures in children and adolescents. Designed for the Elastic Stable Intramedullary Nailing (ESIN) technique, this elastic intramedullary nail provides three-point fixation to ensure biomechanical stability. Our Titanium Elastic Nail allows for controlled micro-motion, promoting rapid callus formation while preserving the growth plate.

The Gold Standard for Pediatric Fracture Fixation

The Titanium Elastic Nail (TEN) system by OrthoPro is specifically engineered to address the unique physiological requirements of pediatric orthopedics. Children’s bones are different from adults; they are growing, more flexible, and heal faster. Our elastic intramedullary nail system utilizes the principle of Elastic Stable Intramedullary Nailing (ESIN), offering a minimally invasive solution that prioritizes the preservation of the bone’s biology and growth plates (physes).

As a trusted partner for global medical distributors, OrthoPro provides a comprehensive range of Titanium Elastic Nails designed to treat long bone fractures in pediatric patients and specific fracture types in adults, such as clavicle and forearm fractures.

Biomechanics and The ESIN Technique

The success of the Titanium Elastic Nail relies on the biomechanical principle of three-point fixation. When two pre-bent nails are inserted into the medullary canal, their elastic restoring force creates a stable construct within the bone. This offers several distinct advantages:

  • Rotational Stability: The divergent configuration of the nails inside the canal provides excellent resistance against rotational forces.
  • Axial Stability: The elasticity of the titanium allows for controlled micro-motion at the fracture site, which is physiologically proven to stimulate rapid callus formation and bone healing.
  • Physeal Sparing: The entry points are chosen specifically to avoid damaging the growth plates, preventing future growth disturbances in pediatric patients.
  • Minimally Invasive: The procedure requires small incisions, leading to less soft tissue damage, reduced blood loss, and better cosmetic outcomes.

Indications for Use

The Titanium Elastic Nail system is versatile and indicated for the fixation of diaphyseal fractures where the medullary canal is narrow or where flexibility is required. Primary indications include:

  • Femoral Shaft Fractures: Ideal for school-age children (typically 5-14 years old).
  • Tibial Fractures: Effective for stable and unstable shaft fractures.
  • Humerus Fractures: Used for diaphyseal and subcapital fractures.
  • Forearm Fractures: Radius and ulna shaft fractures (both pediatric and adult).
  • Clavicle Fractures: Increasingly used for mid-shaft clavicle fractures in active adults to promote early return to activity.

Product Specifications and Parameters

Our Titanium Elastic Nails are manufactured from medical-grade Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V), ensuring high biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and the perfect modulus of elasticity. The nails are color-coded based on diameter for easy intraoperative identification.

Standard Length 440mm / 450mm (Cut to length intraoperatively)
End Caps Standard and Threaded options to prevent nail migration and soft tissue irritation
Color Coding Anodized colors corresponding to specific diameters

Surgical Instruments and Ease of Use

To complement the implant, OrthoPro offers a specialized instrument set for the insertion and extraction of elastic intramedullary nails. The set includes awls, F-tools for reduction, nail cutters, and inserters designed to streamline the surgical workflow. The system is designed to be intuitive, reducing operation time and X-ray exposure.
