Abstract: A femoral neck trochanteric nail makes use of a dual, lag-screw/anti-rotation screw assembly to provide two, spaced fixation points locatable across a femoral neck in conjunction with a corresponding hip procedure. The anti-rotation screw may be advanced through a bore in the lag screw after the lag screw has been suitably fixed to a trochanteric nail received at an intramedullary location. The lag screw and anti-rotation screw construct may be oriented in different positions to have corresponding fixation points at different angular locations after fixation.

Abstract: A variable length headless compression screw insertion system includes a compression screw and a driver assembly for driving the compression screw into a bone. The compression screw has a bone screw and a compression sleeve coupled to the bone screw. The bone screw includes a proximal end having an external threading threadably received in the compression sleeve, and the compression sleeve includes a proximal end having a predefined drive feature and an external threading. The driver assembly includes a sleeve coupler adapted to threadably receive the external threading of the compression sleeve. A ram driver is coupled to the sleeve coupler and has a predetermined length such that its distal end is shaped to contact the proximal end of the bone screw to prevent translation of the bone screw relative to the compression sleeve.

Abstract: An intramedullary nail includes one or more nail openings extending therethrough. The intramedullary nail is implantable within a medullary canal of the bone. A bone plate is configured to engage an outer surface of the bone. The bone plate includes one or more plate openings extending therethrough. The plate openings are spaced about the bone plate such that the bone plate is positionable to axially align the plate openings with the nail openings when the intramedullary nail is implanted within the medullary canal of the bone. An aiming guide includes one or more targeting openings. The targeting openings are spaced about the aiming guide such that the aiming guide is positionable to axially align the targeting openings with the plate openings and the nail openings for extending one or more stabilizing fasteners therethrough when the intramedullary nail is implanted within the medullary canal of the bone.
