INTRAMEDULLARY COMPRESSION NAIL AND RELATED METHOD FOR JONES FRACTURES
摘要
An intramedullary fixation device and related method for treatment of a Jones fracture. An exemplary device may comprise a rod having a distal section and a threaded proximal section, and means for securing the distal section within a first bone portion on a distal side of a fracture site. The device may also comprise a compression collar threadably received over the proximal section for providing compression to the fracture site, the compression collar comprising a threaded portion on its exterior surface configured to engage an interior of a second bone portion on a proximal side of the fracture site. In addition, the device includes an anti- rotational system engaging the compression collar to prevent rotation of the compression collar from its position providing the compression to the facture site.
