CA 2551021

Disclosed is an intramedullary nail (1) comprising a longitudinal axis (2), a proximal end (3), a distal end (4), at least one bore (10, 11) that extends perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (2), lies on a plane (20), and has a defined diameter (d10, d11) for accommodating a locking element (12, 13), and a longitudinal slot (9) that runs parallel to the longitudinal axis (2) on said plane (20). The longitudinal slot (9) is provided with a width b which is measured perpendicular to the plane (20) in the area outside the bores (10, 11) in the non-expanded state of the intramedullary nail and corresponds to a maximum of .6 times the smallest defined diameter (d10) of the bores (10, 11).

L'invention concerne un clou intramédullaire (1) possédant un axe longitudinal (2), une extrémité proximale (3), une extrémité distale (4), au moins un trou (10, 11) s'étendant perpendiculairement à l'axe longitudinal (2) dans un plan (20) et présentant un diamètre défini (d10, d11), ce trou étant destiné à recevoir un élément de verrouillage (12, 13), ainsi qu'une fente oblongue (9) s'étendant parallèlement à l'axe longitudinal (2) dans le plan (20). Cette fente oblongue (9) présente, à l'état non expansé du clou intramédullaire (1), une largeur "b" mesurée perpendiculairement au plan (20) dans la zone à l'extérieur des trous (10, 11), cette largeur "b" correspondant au maximum à 0,6 fois la valeur du plus petit des diamètres définis (d10) des trous (10, 11).
