  • Gamma4 Design
    • Trochanteric Nail
      • The Gamma4 Trochanteric Nail is 170mm long and has a 4º ML bend. Diameter options include 9,10,11,12 and 13mm. 
      • Due to the straight shaft it can be universally applied (left/right).
      • The distance from the proximal end of the nail to the Lag Screw has been reduced by 5mm compared to the legacy system.
    • Smaller Proximal Size
      • Proximal diameter of Ø15.5mm
      • Proximal body is 5mm shorter and beveled for less trochanteric protrusion
      • Optional end caps available
    • Straight Shaft for Universal Application
      • Due to the straight shaft, the Gamma4 trochanteric nail can be universally applied (left/right sides).
    • Medial Bevel for Nail Insertion
  • Indications
    • The Gamma4 System is indicated for the treatment of stable and unstable fractures as well as for stabilization of bones and correction of bone deformities in the intracapsular, trochanteric, subtrochanteric and shaft regions of the femur (including osteoporotic and osteopenic bone).
    • The RC Lag Screw is also indicated for rotationally unstable fractures.
