The present disclosure provides for improved devices, systems and methods for stabilizing bones and/or bone segments that have become displaced and/or unstable due to fractures. In exemplary embodiments, the present disclosure provides for improved devices, systems and methods for deploying bone anchoring elements into bone tissue in order to stabilize bones and/or bone segments that have become displaced and/or unstable due to fractures or the like. In one embodiment, a bone treatment assembly includes a shaft configured to extend at least partially into bone tissue. The shaft includes at least one bone anchoring element with a tissue-piercing portion that is selectively displaced or deployed to engage bone tissue. The at least one bone anchoring element may be displaced by one or both of an inner member sized to extend into a lumen in the shaft and/or an outer member that is translatable over the shaft. |
