CHARFIX2 tibial nail
CHARFIX2 tibia nail
Due to the introduced improvements the nail shape and the nail entry point have been changed. Therefore, the procedure has become safer for the patient.
Screwing the locking elements at the angle other than perpendicular to the nail axis permits the fixation of complex comminuted fractures.
The instrument set is supplied with two proximal targeting devices that let the surgeon select a method of nail implantation.
Indications:
- tibia shaft fractures;
- proximal epiphyseal fractures;
- tibia shaft fractures undergoing both epiphysis
- pathological fractures;
- pseudoarthrosis, malunion or non-union treated with other methods.

CHARFIX2 retrograde tibial nail
is designed for stable osteosynthesis of the tarsus and distal tibia, for the treatment of degenerations and deformities of the tarsal joints.
INDICATIONS:
- tibio-calcaneal arthrodesis;
- combined arthrodesis of talocrural joint and talocalcaneal joint;
- avascular necrosis of talocrural joint and talocalcaneal joint;
- rheumatoid arthritis;
- severe, secondary deformity of untreated congenital clubfoot (talipes equinovarus) or in case of neuromuscular disease;
- seriously deformed foot/ankle, arthritic deformity of ankle with associated stiffness in the talocalcaneal joint;
- osteoarthritis;
- instability and skeletal defects after tumor resection;
- distal tibia fractures with non-unions;
- tibia and/or talus PLAFOND fracture where reconstruction is not possible;
- severe comminuted fractures with associated damage of talocalcaneal joint;
- fractures, dislocations of the ankle combined with serious arthritic changes and loss of function;
- above-ankle non-union combined with stiffness in the talocalcaneal joint;
- malunion of ankle;
- failed total ankle replacement with talocalcaneal joint intrusion.
