1. An orthopedic bone implant to mend a fracture of a humerus through distal and proximal bone fixation, proximal bone fixation using one or more locking screws, distal bone fixation using three or more extendable nail tangs, the three or more extendable nail tangs actuated using a linear tang actuator that passes around the one or more locking screws, allowing linear movement of the linear tang actuator after installation of the one or more locking screws. |
