CA 2103209

A marrow nail includes a nail (1) having a distal end (2), a proximal end (3), a longitudinal axis (4), and a slot (5) in the area of the proximal end, running transverse to the longitudinal axis (4). A cylindrical casing (10) is provided, which can be slid onto the proximal end (3) of marrow nail (1). This casing (10) exhibits a cylindrical axis (11) as well as at least two openings (12, 13) placed at opposite ends of the cylindrical cover (14). The casing (10) is formed in such a way that upon being slid onto marrow nail (1), it can be brought into an axial fastening position relative to the nail. Openings (12, 13) are thereby positioned in the fastening position of casing (10) in the area of slot (5) and with they latter, marrow nail (1) and casing (10) form a transverse channel (12, 5, 13) to admit bone fixation devices.
