INRAMEDULLARY NAIL, IN PARTICULAR, INTRAMEDULLARY NAIL FOR THE TIBIA

摘要

The invention relates to an intramedullary nail, in particular, an intramedullary nail for the tibia, comprising orifices (5, 6, 8, 9) which extend transversally to the nail for accommodating locking screws in the proximal (3) and the distal (4) areas of the intramedullary nail.
