Suggested Use:
This humeral nail is ideal for treating mid-shaft to distal humeral fractures, particularly in cases requiring intramedullary nailing. It is suitable for both traumatic fractures and non-unions. Surgeons should assess patient anatomy and fracture type to determine the appropriate nail size and insertion technique. Preoperative planning with imaging is recommended to ensure proper alignment and fixation.
