 | | Product Description |  |
The efficacy of treating upper extremity fractures with intramedullary nailing has been documented in many studies.
Intramedullary nailing using the AIM Titanium Humeral Nail System offers the benefits of anatomic alignment, rigid fixation with limited soft tissue dissection and early rehabilitation of the injured limb.
Intramedullary nailing indications for humeral fractures should be viewed with caution. The anatomy and function of the humerus are quite different from the long bones of the lower extremity. Before choosing humeral nailing, adequate planning should be used to minimize difficulties. Rotator cuff injury, proximal humerus articular cartilage destruction, radial nerve injury and extension of comminution are all possible complications of this procedure.
