The Femoral Neck System (FNS) is engineered specifically for femoral neck fractures, with improved stability intended to reduce re-operations related to fixation complications.Refer to the following pages for more details.
Enhanced Fixation in a Compact DesignDesigned to provide increased angular and rotational stability with an implant geometry minimizing prominence.1,2,3
Streamlined ProcedureDesigned for reduced procedural complexity utilizing a technique and insertion handle requiring only a single, central guide wire.3

Enhanced Fixation...Designed to provide both angular and rotational stability in a single implant intended to reduce reoperations related to fixation complications.1,2
A published biomechanical study shows that FNS is twice as strong as three cannulated screws (3CS) against femoral neck and leg shortening. The same study also revealed comparable results to two types of sliding hip screws.1
Regardless of construct size, FNS offers enhanced rotational stability. Mechanical testing indicates up to 40% increased rotational stability when comparing to a sliding hip screw (SHS).2

Implant insertion is achieved using one central guide wire and with the help of one main instrument assembly, reducing intraoperative handling.3

Due to the minimized size of the implant, FNS allows for easy insertion – even through a small incision.3

Minimized Implant Footprint
Guided Implant Placement1. Insertion Handle
• Used for initial insertion of Bolt and Plate
• Serves as targeting device for ARScrew and Locking Screw(s)
• Guides additional wires
2. Insert• Guides insertion of ARScrew
• Allows for up to 20mm of intra- operative compression
3. Protective Sleeve• Guides insertion of Locking Screw(s)
• Helps to protect soft tissue
The implant design is intended to eliminate lateral protrusion, with up to 20mm of guided collapse.
