Ankle Intramedullary Nail

Retrograde tibiotalarcalcaneal nailing is an effective surgical treatment for patients that require secure fusion of the ankle and talar joint. The Oxbridge™Ankle Fusion Nail System has been designed to offer a simple and reproducible surgical option for these patients.

Dynamic or Static Locking Options
Choice of dynamic and static proximal locking screw options enables dynamic loading of the nail.

Low Profile Cortical Screws
Ultra low profile heads and soft tips minimise soft tissue irritation at the subcutaneous border. Choice of insertion point – medial to lateral or lateral to medial.Self tapping screws for ease of insertion.Fully threaded screws to achieve bi-cortical fixation.Increments of 2mm – 26 lengths – 20mm to 120mm

Biocompatible material with excellent fatigue strength. Modulus of elasticity closer to bone than that of stainless steel.

PA and ML Distal Screw Placement
Two PA distal screw options and two ML lateral screw options.Distal screws can be positioned accurately in the calcaneum and talus for secure fixation.

Miss-A-Nail Screw Option
Additional compression and rotational stability of fusion site augmented by positioning cannulated screw either anterior or posterior to nail, or both. The jig ensures that the nail position will not compromise screw placement.

Instrumentation.
nstrumentation and surgical technique have been designed to be as simple and straightforward as possible.
