Pre-Assembled Dual-Stage Locking Mechanism

The Phoenix™ Ankle Arthrodesis Nail is composed of titanium alloy and features proprietary CoreLock™ Technology. This  distinct, dual-stage locking mechanism is pre-assembled and embedded in each nail, providing up to 7mm of internal tibiotalar compression, followed by independent locking of the calcaneal screws. The nail offers a static screw site proximally and a 10mm dynamic compression slot, both of which accommodate 5.0 mm double lead cortical screws.

Anatomy

  • Tibia

Product Type

  • Intramedullary Nail

Procedure

  • Ankle: Tibiotalocalcaneal (TTC) Arthrodesis

System Features

The system features a strong, lightweight radiolucent targeting arm that permits radiographic visualization in multiple planes, and can provide 30mm of axial compression across both the ankle and subtalar fusion sites. When additional fixation and/or control of rotation is desired, the targeting arm can accurately target an oblique screw on either side of the nail.

System Features

Easy-to-use color-coded instrumentation

With easy to use color-coded instrumentation, the Phoenix Ankle Arthrodesis Nail System offers an efficient, user-friendly experience in the OR. 

CoreLock™ Technology

This system features proprietary CoreLockTM technology which represents the only dual stage internal compression/locking mechanism currently available today. CoreLockTM mechanisms are designed with serrated surfaces that interdigitate with the screw threads for a secure, mechanical lock— not a friction lock. This feature also allows for screws to be removed without having to disengage compression and/or locking mechanisms.

PA Screw Alignment Guide Arm

When the Targeting Arm is positioned to prepare the first tibial or talar screw, a radiolucent PA Alignment Guide Arm (14-440051 ) can be attached to indicate the location and trajectory of the calcaneal PA screw prior to initial insertion. This Guide will also indicate if the nail is rotated properly within the canal.
