The Femur Intramedullary Nail is a load-sharing orthopedic implant designed for the internal fixation of fractures along the shaft (diaphysis) and metaphyseal regions of the femur. It is inserted into the intramedullary canal of the femur and offers strong, stable fixation while preserving surrounding soft tissue and promoting faster healing through minimally invasive techniques.

Made from biocompatible materials such as titanium alloy or stainless steel, the femoral nail typically includes proximal and distal locking holes that allow for both static and dynamic locking configurations. The nail may be used for antegrade insertion (through the proximal femur/great trochanter) or retrograde insertion (through the intercondylar notch), depending on the fracture location and surgeon preference.

Available in various lengths, diameters, and curvatures, femoral nails can be solid or cannulated and are often used with locking screws to provide rotational and axial stability.
