摘要 |
Surgical methods and fixation devices for bone fixation and stabilization on a patient include exposing at least a portion of a first phalanx and a second phalanx at a joint of a patient; creating a passage in an intramedullary canal of the first phalanx; inserting a first head portion of a fixation device along the passage in the intramedullary canal in a translating manner past the cancellous bone in the phalanx until the head portion engages the subchondral bone at a base of the first phalanx, the fixation device having an opposing second head portion extending out of the passage from the first phalanx; and introducing the second phalanx onto the second head portion so that the second head portion anchors in the second phalanx. |
