Interlocking Nails Femur, Tibia and Supracondylar
IMN
Introduction
The femoral, tibial and supracondylar nails in the JMF Nailing system are manufactured from unslotted, cylindrical closed-section high tensile strength stainless steel. Superior torsional resistance of this design is an important advantage in comparison with conventional slotted designs. A gentle taper at the tip allows easy insertion. The JMF femur nails feature upward, transverse, downward and miss-the-nail locking options for ipsilateral fracture configurations. The same nails are used for left and right femora reducing inventory and simplifying handling which are key benefits to operating surgeons and operating room staff. The JMF tibia nails have proximal locking screws which are oriented at 45° to the long axis of the tibia. These screws are safer to introduce than conventional A-P screws and allow excellent purchase in the posterior cortices. All nails are constructed with a reinforced distal locking hole which is located at the distal tip of the nail. This locking hole allows these nails to be used with more distal fractures when compared with most systems. Small Diameter Nails Smaller diameter nails (Dia 9 & 10mm) are available for patients with small medullary canals. Modular design instrumentation enables the insertion and locking of small diameter nails with the same instruments used for standard diameter nails. New Generation Instrumentation the JMF system features specially designed insertion instrumentation with polymer shock-absorbing washers which absorb impaction loads. The instrumentation is extensively tested for reliability in preventing thread loosening during nail impaction. Indications the JMF femoral locking nail system can be used for a wide range of stable and unstable fracture configurations including • Proximal and distal fractures • Two part fractures • Segmental fractures • Comminuted fractures with or without bone loss • Ipsilateral fractures • Proximal or distal non unions and malunions • Corrective osteotomies • Prophylaxis of pathological fractures

Surgical Technique Preparing the Canal and Inserting the Femoral Nail
5 cm
1
An incision of approximately 5 cm is carried out centered on the tip of the greater trochanter.
Access the medullary canal using the Diamond Pointed Awl (12-1701). The point of insertion should be in line with the pyriformis fossa, slightly medial to the tip of the greater trochanter.
Insert a standard Reaming Guide Wire (or Reduction-cumReaming Guide Wire) using the following steps –
2
3
• Insert the guide wire upto the fracture site • Check fracture reduction using the image intensifier • Insert the wire beyond the fracture site • Insert the wire upto the supracondylar region and check correct positioning in the center of the femoral canal.
Proceed to ream the femoral canal using sequential flexible reamers in steps of 0.5mm. Ensure AP and ML control of the reamer to avoid eccentric reaming. If comminution is present, reaming should be stopped at the fracture site and the reamer pushed past the fracture site, with the power drill in the “off ” position, till the reamer crosses the site of comminution. The last reamer used should be at least 1mm (ideally 1.5 – 2.0mm) higher than the planned nail diameter. It may be necessary to over-ream the proximal part of the canal 2.5 – 3.0mm higher than the planned nail diameter to accommodate the proximally strengthened part of the nail.

Technique Femur
Selection of Nail length Prior to inserting the nail, the reaming guide wire should be exchanged for the Nailing guide wire (12-1729) using an Exchange Sleeve. Select nail length by measuring the length of the nailing guide wire outside the intramedullary canal (exposed length) from the point of entry and reducing the same from the total length of the wire.
4
• Add 5mm to arrive at the length of nail to be used. • Round off this figure to the next higher nail length available. In case of highly comminuted fractures, use X-ray measurements of the contralateral limb to arrive at the nail length to be used.
Nail Insertion Nail insertion is achieved using the following steps
5
6
Assemble the selected femur nail with the Femur/Tibia Jig cum Nail Impactor, complete (12-1715) by aligning the slots on the nail with the two prongs on the body of the instrument and tightening the threads on the Locking Bolt of the instrument with the internal threads on the nail.
7
14
Disassemble the Driver for Jig Assembly by unthreading it from the Main Body of the Jig to expose the proximal end of the Nail Locking Bolt.
Using the Double Ended Spanner (12-1716), tighten the Nail Locking Bolt, so that the Femur Nail is securely fastened. Important: Excessive force must not be used to tighten the nail locking bolt. A quarter-turn with the spanner is normally sufficient to secure the nail following manual tightening of the locking bolt.

Reassemble the Driver for Jig Assembly to the main body of the instrument.
Insert the nail over the nailing guide wire and introduce the nail by hand as far as possible.
9
10
Important: While insertion, the tip of the nail may ‘catch’ on the medial cortex of the medullary cavity if the proximal part of the nail is not slightly pushed in towards the patient. If this happens, it is essential that hammering is not carried out as a fracture of the femoral shaft or bending of the nail may result.
Reassemble the Driver for Jig Assembly to the main body of the instrument.
Use the InLine Impaction/Extraction Ram (12-1717) to impact the Nail-Jig assembly for final impaction. If necessary, the guide wire must be held to prevent backing out.
11
Note: Direct hammering on any part of the Jig assembly should be avoided at all costs as this will cause the Jig to distort and destroy the accuracy of the guiding holes. Impaction and Extraction should be carried out only using the InLine Impaction/Extraction Ram.

Distal Locking with Screws Distal locking is performed in the conventional mode with distal screws. The standard free hand technique for distal locking is recommended. Distal aiming devices including the Guide Bush (12-1721), Aiming Trocar (12-1722), Homing Device, Femur (12-1723), Homing Device, Tibia (12-1724) and Distal Aiming Device with Fibre Handle (12-1725) are available in the instrumentation to assist in the distal locking process. Different types of distal locking screws are available with the system and are described below: • Locking Screw 4.5mm, self-tapping: This screw requires both cortices to be drilled with a 3.5mm drill bit and over-drilling of the near cortex with a 4.5mm drill bit. The 4.5mm shaft with distal threads provides higher resistance to shear loading. The threads on the screw head enable this screw to be securely engaged with the Hex Screwdriver with Sleeve while insertion. • Tibial Locking Screw 4.5mm, self tapping: This screw while designed for the tibia may also be used for distal femoral locking. Faster insertion is possible as this screw is designed for direct insertion following 3.5mm drilling (both cortices). Insertion is with a standard Hex Screwdriver (3.5mm a/f).
Proximal Locking The femur nails allow proximal locking in three configurations. The steps to be followed to achieve proximal locking in each of these configurations are described below.
The 130° Downward Lock Engaging the dense trabecular bone of the medial femur, this is the preferred locking option when allowed by the fracture configuration. The additional benefit of this locking option is that prox mal locking can be achieved by slightly extending the main nail insertion incision without creating a second incision for the proximal lock. Proximal locking with the 130°, downward locking screw is achieved with the following steps:

16
Ensure that the Jig cum Nail Impactor is securely engaged with the implanted nail and is correctly oriented with the Locking Arm oriented lateral to the nail. Extend the nail insertion incision as necessary to achieve insertion of the Drill Guide for proximal locking, upto bone.

Technique Tibia
Preparing the Canal and Inserting the Tibia Nail
1
A surgical incision of approximately 5 cm vertically and centrally to the tibial plateau extending distally is carried out. The patellar tendon is either cut centrally or retracted laterally. Access the diaphyseal canal using the Diamond Pointed Awl (12-1701). The proximal insertion point selected should be less than 1 cm distal to the anterior margin of the tibial plateau. If the insertion point is too distal, damage to posterior cortical bone could result.
Insert a standard Reaming Guide Wire (or Reduction-cum-Reaming Guide Wire) using the following steps – • Insert the guide wire upto the fracture site • Check fracture reduction using the image intensifier • Insert the wire beyond the fracture site • Insert the wire upto the 1 cm proximal to the ankle joint
2
3
Proceed to ream the tibial canal using sequential flexible reamers in steps of 0.5mm. Ensure AP and ML control of the reamer to avoid eccentric reaming. If comminution is present, reaming should be stopped at the fracture site and penetration continued with the power drill in the “off ” position, till the reamer crosses the site of comminution. The last reamer used should be 1.5 – 2.0mm higher than the planned nail diameter. It may be necessary to over-ream the proximal part of the canal (at least the cortical) 2.5 – 3.0mm higher
Selection of Nail length
4
Prior to inserting the nail, the reaming guide wire should be exchanged for the Nailing guide wire using an Exchange Sleeve. Tibial nails in the system are available in increments of 10mm to facilitate easy availability of the closest length of nail required. Select nail length by measuring the length of the nailing guide wire outside the intramedullary canal (exposed length) from the point of entry and reducing the same from the total length of the wire. • Add 5mm to arrive at the length of nail to be used. • Round off this figure to the next higher nail length available. In case of highly comminuted fractures, use X-ray measurements of the contralateral limb to arrive at the nail length to be used.

Use the InLine Impaction/Extraction Ram (12-1717) to impact the Nail-Jig assembly for final impaction. If necessary, the guide wire must be held to prevent backing out. Note: Direct hammering on any part of the Jig assembly should be avoided at all costs as this will cause the Jig to distort and destroy the accuracy of the guiding holes. Impaction and Extraction should be carried out only using the InLine Impaction/Extraction Ram.
Image intensifier views may be taken to confirm correction positioning of the nail.
Distal Locking with screws Distal locking is performed in the conventional mode with distal screws. The standard free hand technique for distal locking is recommended. Distal aiming devices including the Guide Bush (12-1721), Aiming Trocar (12-1722), Homing Device, Femur (12-1723), Homing Device, Tibia (12-1724) and Distal Aiming Device with Fibre Handle (12-1725) are available in the instrumentation to assist in the distal locking process. Different types of distal locking screws are available, and are described below: • Locking Screw 4.5mm, self-tapping: This screw requires both cortices to be drilled with a 3.5mm drill bit and over-drilling of the near cortex with a 4.5mm drill bit. The 4.5mm shaft with distal threads provides higher resistance to shear loading. The threads on the screw head enable this screw to be securely engaged with the Hex Screwdriver with Sleeve while insertion. • Tibial Locking Screw 4.5mm, self tapping: This screw while designed for the tibia may also be used for distal femoral locking. Faster insertion is possible as this screw is designed for direct insertion following 3.5mm drilling (both cortices). Insertion is with a standard Hex Screwdriver (3.5mm a/f).
Proximal Locking
Proximal locking with tibial nails is achieved with two proximal locking screws oriented at 45° to the A-P plane as illustrated. The 45°, orientation provides two important benefits: • The distal threads of both proximal locking screws engage in the dense postero-medial and postero-lateral cortices of the tibia. This provides more secure holding when compared with medio-lateral locking screws • The inclined drilling that is required for placement of these screws is safer as it eliminates the risk to posterior neurovascular structures associated with antero-posterior drilling for A-P screws Tibial locking is performed with 4.5mm Tibial Locking Screws with low profile screw heads. These screws are self-tapping with a core diameter appropriate for direct insertion following drilling with a 3.5mm drill bit.

Technique Supracondylar
Supracondylar Nailing The Supracondylar Nail is a non-slotted smooth, cylindrical nail with proximal and distal holes. The 8° angle allows for better seating of the implant within the femoral canal and also allows percutaneous insertion without interfering with the patella or patellar tendon. The proximal (insertion) end of the nail features internal threads, which securely couple with the instrumentation and also allow engagement of a threaded locking cap.
Point of entry
The point of entry is located, just anterior to the insertion of the posterior cruciate ligament. This point is identified as the co-ordinate at the junction of the antero-posterior line drawn through the deepest part of the trochlear groove and the medio-lateral line connecting the two epicondyles.
Incision Nailing can be done either through a formal open approach or through a percutaneous approach. For the formal open approach, a medial para-patellar incision is taken and the patella is dislocated laterally. The percutaneous approach is done through a 2 cm incision distal to the inferior pole of the patella and medial to the patellar tendon. The infra-patellar fat pad is retracted, a steinman pin is inserted and the point of entry is localized with the help of a C-arm image intensifier.

4
Proceed to ream the femoral canal using sequential flexible reamers in steps of 0.5mm. Ensure AP and ML control of the reamer to avoid eccentric reaming. If comminution is present, reaming should be stopped at the fracture site and the reamer pushed past the fracture site, with the power drill in the “off ” position, till the reamer crosses the site of comminution. The last reamer used should be at least 1mm (ideally 1.5 – 2.0mm) higher than the planned nail diameter. It may be necessary to overream the proximal part of the canal 2.5 – 3.0mm higher than the planned nail diameter to accommodate the proximally strengthened part of the nail.
Selection of Nail Length
5
Prior to inserting the nail, the reaming guide wire should be exchanged for the Nailing guide wire using an Exchange Sleeve. Available lengths are 150mm and 200mm. Nail length selection is based on pre-operative planning to ensure that there is a distance of at least 50mm between the fracture site and the nearest proximal locking screw.

The insertion Jig cum nail Impactor exactly matches the outer diameter of the nail. This allows complete nail insertion without mechanical impedance. A groove located on the Jig body enables control of insertion depth (aligning the groove with the distal articular surface of the lateral femoral condyle ensures correct depth of nail insertion.
Locking of the supracondylar nail It is recommended that proximal locking be carried out first and fracture reduction and nail position confirmed before carrying out the distal lock. Proximal locking is carried out using the Drill sleeve assembly, long (12-1712). The Guide Bar of the Jig cum nail Impactor features four proximal holes. The two most proximal holes are used to lock the 200mm nail. The next two holes are used to lock the 150mm nail.
