Content
The offset section 116 redirects the distal end 104 posteriorly within a distal end of the long bone. For example, in a femur, the offset section 116 redirects the distal end 104 from a conventional entry point (i.e. one that may be used in patient’s without a distal joint prosthesis) that would be between the lateral condyle, medial condyle, and patellar surface to another entry point more posterior between the lateral condyle and medial condyle, such as for example, within the intercondylar fossa (e.g., the posterior intercondyloid fossa). Advantageously, the offset section 116 permits a surgeon to perform a retrograde deployment from a distal end of long bone at an entry point that is more posterior than may be used conventionally. Deploying an intramedullary nail 100 at an entry point that is more posterior can be advantageous where a patient has received a total knee replacement (TKR) or partial knee replacement that includes a femoral component implant that blocks access to the medullary canal by way of an entry point more anterior between the lateral condyle and medial condyles (e.g., at the middle of the intercondylar sulcus). Advantageously, the section 116 can be designed to accommodate a variety of prosthesis that may be deployed with a patient. For example, the section 116 can be configured to account for prosthesis such as a joint or fixation prostheses, femoral component for a partial or total knee replacement (TKR) procedure, a femoral component for a total hip replacement, and/or to address a peri-implant fracture of a patient’s bone.
