TRIGEN◊ INTERTAN◊ Intertrochanteric Antegrade Nail
Enhanced outcomes from enhanced stability*1
Satisfying outcomes for you and your patients
A trapezoidal shape provides a press-fit in the metaphyseal region to position more material on the lateral side of the nail where tensile/stretching forces tend to be greatest.2
Integrated Compression Screws generate push/pull forces that are designed to hold compression after instrument removal and eliminate the Z-effect, with a worm gear mechanism converting rotation to active compression while stabilising the medial fragment.
