The Leg Screw for PFN Nail is a critical component of the Proximal Femoral Nail (PFN) system, designed to anchor the nail into the femoral head and neck to stabilize proximal femur fractures. This screw has a specific 6.4mm diameter and is engineered to provide controlled sliding and dynamic compression across the fracture site, promoting healing. It is inserted through the main PFN nail body. The image shows a smooth shaft followed by a cancellous thread pattern, which is typical for hip compression screws .

Key features include:

• System Specificity: Used exclusively with the PFN Intramedullary Nailing System.

• Controlled Sliding: Functions as a lag screw to allow fracture compression.

• Primary Use: Proximal fixation and stabilization of the femoral neck and head.

• Fixed Diameter: Diameter of 6.4mm.

• Length Range: Extensive lengths from 50mm to 120mm (with 5mm variation).

• Material Options: Available in both Stainless Steel and Titanium.
