Product Overview

Implant Overview

The Zimmer® Natural Nail® System
is a system of intramedullary (IM)
nails, screws, instruments and other
associated implants that are designed
to provide stable internal fixation for
fractured long bones. The nails have
been designed for specific applications
to help restore the shape of the fractured
bone to its natural, pre-injured state.

Greater Trochanter

The Antegrade Femur nails are designed
to help treat various fractures of the
femur. Different nails are available to
be placed through the tip of the Greater
Trochanter or through the Piriformis
Fossa. Screws are placed through the
nail to secure the implant in place and
maintain length and alignment while
healing occurs. The nails have multiple
screw holes in the proximal body to allow
surgeons to address different fracture
types. Proximal and distal slots allow for
compression or dynamization across 		
a fracture.

Nail Diameters: 8.3, 9.3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14mm
Nail Lengths:

8.3mm, 24 to 40cm in 2cm increments

	

9.3mm and larger, 24 to 48cm in 2cm increments

	

CCD Angle: 132°

Piriformis Fossa
Nail Diameters: 9.3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15mm
Nail Lengths:

24 to 48cm in 2cm increments

	

CCD Angle: 128° Universal

Proximal Screw Diameters
5.0mm for transverse holes (with Stabilize Technology)
6.0mm for Recon/Descending holes
Distal Screw Diameters (with Stabilize Technology)
4.0mm for 8.3mm nails
5.0mm for 9.3mm and larger nails
Screw Lengths
4.0mm:	 20 to 60mm in 2.5mm increments
	

65 to 100mm in 5mm increments

5.0mm:	 20 to 60mm in 2.5mm increments
	

65 to 100mm in 5mm increments

6.0mm:	 50 to 140mm in 5mm increments
Screws available in fully- and partially-threaded configurations.

Precision instrumentation is provided
to help implant the nail. Many of the
instruments and implants feature a
color coding system to help the surgical
team use the system. Certain universal
instruments are not color coded. The
color coding system is referenced in the
technique. A wall chart (97-2491-00300) is also available to help explain the
color coding system.

Zimmer® Natural Nail® System Antegrade Femoral Surgical Technique

Indications
The Zimmer Natural Nail system is
indicated for temporary fracture fixation
and stabilization of the bone.
Indications for use of the Greater
Trochanter and Piriformis Fossa nails in
the femur include:
•	 Compound and simple shaft fractures
•	 Proximal, metaphyseal and distal 	
shaft fractures
•	 Segmental fractures
•	 Comminuted fractures
•	 Fractures involving osteopenic and
osteoporotic bone
•	 Pathological fractures
•	 Fractures with bone loss
•	 Pseudoarthrosis, non-union, 	
mal-union and delayed union
•	 Periprosthetic fractures

WARNING: This nail should only be used
to treat a periprosthetic fracture if the in
situ device is firmly fixed. When treating
a periprosthetic fracture, the nail should
be positioned so that it does not come in
contact with the in situ device.

Surgical Technique
Preoperative Planning
Preoperative planning is recommended
before beginning the surgical procedure.
A/P and Lateral x-rays of the injured
femur should be taken preoperatively
and evaluated for length, canal size
and implant suitability. A/P and Lateral
x-rays of the contralateral uninjured
femur can also be taken preoperatively
to provide insight into the characteristics
of the pre-injured femur.

Patient Positioning

• 	Lack of bone substance or bone
quality which makes stable seating of
the implant impossible

The patient should be positioned in
either a lateral or supine position. If
positioned in a supine position, a bump
should be placed under the hip of the
injured femur to elevate it slightly. The
use of a fracture table can be beneficial
to help during fracture reduction as well
as to facilitate intraoperative imaging
with a C-arm. The C-arm should be placed
to allow for imaging of the femur in
both planes along the entire length of
the bone. If reconstruction screws are
planned, the C-arm must allow for lateral
imaging of the femoral head and neck.
Adduction of the injured femur can also
be helpful when placing reconstruction
screws.

• All concomitant diseases that can
impair the functioning and the success
of the implant

Drape the patient appropriately to allow
the surgeon to work from the hip to the
knee.

•	 Surgically created defects such 		
as osteotomies
•	 Intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric
fractures

Contraindications
•	 A medullary canal obliterated by a
previous fracture or tumor
•	 Bone shaft having excessive bow or
deformity

•	Infection
•	 Insufficient blood circulation
•	 Skeletally immature patients

Reduction
It is critical to achieve anatomic
reduction before beginning any of the
steps to place the IM Nail. Traction
should be used as necessary to help
achieve fracture reduction. Several
instruments are available to assist in
fracture reduction including clamps,
reduction tongs, ball spike pushers and
Steinman pins.
Certain portions of the surgical
procedure differ depending on whether
a surgeon chooses to use a Greater
Trochanter Entry Point Nail or a Piriformis
Fossa Entry Point Nail. Please follow the
appropriate portion of the technique
that directs use of the chosen nail type.
Most pictures depict use of the Greater
Trochanteric Entry Point. Do not attempt
to use the Greater Trochanter Entry Point
Nail through a Piriformis Fossa Entry
Point or vice versa.

Zimmer® Natural Nail® System Antegrade Femoral Surgical Technique

Greater Trochanter Entry Point
Starting Point Location			
The starting point for the nail is located on the tip of the greater
trochanter (Figure 1). On the AP image, the starting point
should be on the tip of the greater trochanter, not lateral. On
the lateral image, the starting point should be in the midpoint
of the greater trochanter. For a proximal femur fracture where
recon screws will be used, the entry point on the lateral image is
at the junction of the anterior 1/3 and the posterior 2/3 of the
greater trochanter.
Begin the skin incision 3cm proximal to the greater trochanter.
A larger incision may be desired for obese patients. Split the
fascia of the gluteus maximus in line with its fibers. Identify
the subfascial plane of the gluteus medius, and palpate the
posterior tip of the greater trochanter. A 3.0mm threaded pin
can also be used to create a stab incision and advanced down
to the greater trochanter (Figure 2). The ENTRY CANNULA
STARTING POINT LOCATOR placed inside the ENTRY CANNULA
can also assist with dissection down to the bone (Figure 3).

Fig. 1

Fig. 2

Zimmer® Natural Nail® System Antegrade Femoral Surgical Technique

Piriformis Fossa Entry Point
Starting Point Location					
The starting point for the nail is located in the piriformis fossa
for a standard shaft fracture (Figure 1). For a proximal femur
fracture where recon screws will be used, the entry point is 5mm
anterior to the normal piriformis entry point. Begin the skin
incision 3cm proximal to the greater trochanter. A larger incision
may be desired for obese patients. Split the fascia of the gluteus
maximus in line with its fibers. Identify the subfascial plane of
the gluteus medius, and palpate the posterior tip of the greater
trochanter. A 3.0mm threaded pin can also be used to create a
stab incision and gain entry into the fossa (figure 2). The ENTRY
CANNULA STARTING POINT LOCATOR placed inside the ENTRY
CANNULA can also assist with dissection down to the bone
(Figure3).

Zimmer® Natural Nail® System Antegrade Femoral Surgical Technique

Place the 3.0mm threaded pin into the
starting point. Use the C-arm to visualize
the pin’s position from A/P and Lateral
views. The pin should be inserted at the
identified point in the direction of the
center of the medullary canal.
Drive the pin through the starting point into
the center of the medullary canal. Use the
8.0mm ENTRY REAMER to ream an entry
portal into the proximal femur through
the starting point (Figure 4). Remove the
reamer and 3.0mm pin.

CAUTION: If the guide wire is bent shorter
than 5cm from the end of the wire and/or
more than 10 degrees it may be difficult to
remove from the nail. If the wire becomes
lodged inside the nail, utilize the GUIDE
WIRE GRIPPER and mallet to remove the
guide wire from the nail.

distal epiphyseal scar using the GUIDE
WIRE GRIPPER and a MALLET (Figure 6).
Care should be taken not to drive the wire
through the distal femur.

Fluoroscopy can assist you in guiding the
wire past the fracture site. If you plan to
ream the canal of the femur, the ball tip
wire should be centered and embedded
in the distal femur at the level of the

Fig. 5

Fig. 7

A REDUCTION FINGER is included in the
set. The ball tip guide wire can be fed
retrograde through the REDUCTION FINGER.
The REDUCTION FINGER can then be placed
into the femur and used to help reduce the
femur from the inside as well as to help
facilitate passage of the guide wire past the
fracture site.

Fig. 4

Alternatively, an AWL can be used to find
the entry point and create the entry portal.
Place a 3.0mm x 100cm BALL TIP GUIDE
WIRE (00/47-2255-008-01) into the
medullary canal all the way into the distal
femur (Figure 5). To aid in manipulation,
bend the tip of the guide wire at about a
10 degree angle 5cm from the end.

Fig. 6

Assemble the two piece NAIL LENGTH
GAUGE. Slide the tube portion of the
gauge over the 3.0mm x 100cm ball tip
guide wire until the tip of the tube is
at the level of the entry point (confirm
position using fluoroscopy) (Figure 7).
The proximal end of the ball tip guide
wire indicates the length of the wire in
the canal. When determining nail length,
consideration should be taken as to how
deep the nail will be inserted into the
femur based upon the desired location
of the proximal screws. A RULER is also
included in the set which can be used to
radiographically determine nail length.

7

Zimmer® Natural Nail® System Antegrade Femoral Surgical Technique

Proximal Reaming
Use the 14.5mm TAPERED REAMER
to prepare the proximal femur for the
proximal portion of the nail (Figure 8).
The C-arm should be used to visualize
the depth of the reamer in the proximal
femur. Care should be taken to keep the
reamer in line with the shaft of the femur
to avoid reaming through the cortex of
the femur.

8.3mm Greater Trochanter Entry Point
Nail Note: The 8.3mm nail has a proximal
diameter of 12.0mm. With this size nail,
a shaft reamer should be used, instead
of the 14.5mm TAPERED or CHANNEL
REAMER, to create an opening 13.0 to
13.5mm in diameter proximally. This will
allow the head of the nail to be safely
inserted into the bone, without removing
an excess amount of bone.

via the sleeve, power the reamer until
it enters the sleeve. Following shaft
reaming the CHANNEL REAMER SLEEVE
should be removed from the surgical
field (Figure 11).

A CHANNEL REAMER is also available for
proximal reaming. The INNER CHANNEL
REAMER is placed inside the 14.5mm
CHANNEL REAMER SLEEVE and secured
by twisting the connector. The CHANNEL
REAMER is then advanced over the guide
wire through the piriformis fossa/greater
trochanter. Advance the reamer to level
of the lesser trochanter (Figure 9) or deep
enough to accommodate the proximal
body of the nail. Care should be taken to
keep the reamer in line with the shaft of
the femur to avoid reaming through the
cortex of the femur.

Fig. 8

The 14.5mm TAPERED REAMER has three
grooves on it. The most proximal groove
indicates the final position of the top
of the nail. The two distal grooves help
visualize the placement of the recon
screws. Visualizing a line between these
grooves on each side of the reamer
(under fluoroscopy) will indicate the
approximate centerline between the
recon screws to help facilitate placement
in the femoral neck and head.

After reaming to the proper depth to
accommodate the proximal body of the
nail, the INNER CHANNEL REAMER is
removed by disengaging the connector
and pulling the INNER CHANNEL REAMER
out of the surgical field (Figure 10). The
CHANNEL REAMER SLEEVE can be left in
place to act as a tissue protection sleeve
during shaft reaming for shaft reamers
up to 13mm in diameter. To achieve
greater reaming depth or diameter, the
ENTRY CANNULA can be used in place of
the sleeve. To facilitate reamer removal

Shaft Reaming
Start with a small Zimmer® Pressure
Sentinel® Reamer. Increase the diameter
of the reamer by 0.5 - 1.0mm depending
on the amount of resistance felt while
reaming (Figure 13). The GUIDE WIRE
PUSHER can help prevent the ball tip
guide wire from coming out of the femur
during reaming. When cortical chatter
occurs, stop reaming. Choose a nail
that is 1.0 – 1.5mm smaller than the last
reamer used. The proximal diameter of
nails smaller than 13mm is 13mm. For
nails 13mm and larger in diameter, the
diameter of the nail is constant.
NOTE: If the Guide Wire becomes lodged
within the reamer, use the Guide Wire

Fig. 13

Fig. 14

Pusher to push the Guide Wire back into
the IM canal.

Nail Assembly and Insertion
The color code for the antegrade femur
nails is GREEN. Ti-6Al-4V alloy nails, the
TARGETING GUIDE and the CONNECTING
BOLT all have GREEN colors on them, as
well as the word GREEN etched on them.
Place the CONNECTING BOLT through the
barrel of the TARGETING GUIDE HANDLE
(Figure 14). Rotate the nail around the
CONNECTING BOLT to begin threading
the bolt into the proximal portion of the
nail. Completely tighten the CONNECTING
BOLT to secure the nail to the guide. The
arrow on the barrel of the TARGETING
GUIDE HANDLE will line up with the arrow
and appropriate letter on nail (R for Right
Femur, L for Left Femur) when the nail is
correctly aligned. Ensure that the nail is
tightened to the barrel of the guide and
that the teeth on the barrel interdigitate
with the notches in the nail (Figure 15).
Use a screw cannula, drill sleeve and
drill bit to verify that the holes in the
guide target the holes in the nail. If
using descending interlocking or
reconstruction screws, the appropriate
TARGETING MODULE should be attached
to verify that the drills line up with the
holes in the nail. Thread the connecting
knob into the module before attaching
the module to the guide.

Fig. 15

Zimmer® Natural Nail® System Antegrade Femoral Surgical Technique

Note: Remove the TARGETING MODULE before inserting the
nail.

Greater Trochanter Entry Point Nail Insertion
Insert the nail over the guide wire with the arm of the guide
facing anterior to the patient (Figure 16GT). The guide will turn
90° as it passes down the femoral canal. The combination of
the nail’s anatomic shape as well as the flutes in the nail will

help the nail rotate as it passes down the canal. Monitor the
progression of the nail using the C-arm, especially as the nail
is passing through or near the fracture site.

Piriformis Fossa Entry Point Nail Insertion

Zimmer® Natural Nail® System Antegrade Femoral Surgical Technique

Insert the nail over the guide wire with
the arm of the
guide facing lateral to the patient (Figure
16PF). Monitor
the progression of the nail down the
canal using the
C-arm, especially as the nail is passing
through or near
the fracture site.
If the nail does not pass down the canal
easily, attach the IMPACTION HEAD to
the TARGETING GUIDE HANDLE. Using the
MALLET, impact gently on the IMPACTION
HEAD (Figure 17). Do not strike the guide.
CAUTION: Do not strike excessively as
damage to the targeting guide and bone

Fig. 17

may result.
Verify that the CONNECTING BOLT is tight
while impacting. Do not impact on any
other portion of the TARGETING GUIDE
HANDLE or MODULE as this may break
the guide or cause it to lose its accuracy.
If the nail will not advance with
impaction, remove the nail and ream the
canal to a larger diameter at additional
0.5 mm increments or consider using a
smaller diameter nail. Place the top of
the nail in line with or below the surface
of the entry point, depending on its
position relative to the expected screw
location.

Zimmer® Natural Nail® System Antegrade Femoral Surgical Technique

Remove the ball tip guide wire from
the nail using the GUIDE WIRE GRIPPER
(Figure 18). If possible, the guide wire
should be removed before the nail
is completely seated to reduce the
potential for the wire to get caught in
the nail. If the wire is difficult to remove,
rotate the wire 90o with the GUIDE WIRE
GRIPPER while pulling the wire.

Proximal Screw Placement
Proximal Screw Diameter:
6.0mm for Reconstruction or Descending
Interlocking Screws, 5.0mm for
Transverse Interlocking Screws
Proximal Screw Lengths:
6.0mm – 50 to 140mm in 5mm
increments
5.0mm - 20 to 60mm in 2.5mm
increments, 65 to 100mm in 5mm
increments
Distal Screw Diameter:
5.0mm for 9.3 to 15mm nails, 4.0mm for
8.3mm nails (Greater Troch Nail Only)
Distal Screw Lengths:
20 to 60mm in 2.5mm increments, 65 to
100mm in 5mm increments
The reconstruction screw holes in
the nail should be used with partially
threaded 6.0mm screws. The descending
interlock holes should be used with
fixed angle 6.0mm screws although this
will not create a fixed angle construct.
The transverse interlocking holes use
5.0mm screws. A fixed angle construct
can be created by using 5.0mm fixed
angle screws in these holes. If a fixed
angle construct is not desired*, partially
threaded 5.0mm screws should be used
in the transverse interlocking holes.

Slide the TROCAR into the SCREW
CANNULA (Figure 19). Slide the SCREW
CANNULA through one of the selected
holes in the TARGETING GUIDE or
MODULE. Incise the skin at the point the
TROCAR touches it and dissect through
the tissue down to the bone to make a
path for the SCREW CANNULA. Advance
the SCREW CANNULA until the tip of the
TROCAR is against the bone (Figure 20).
CAUTION: Do not impact on the cannula.
Remove the TROCAR. Insert the
appropriate sized DRILL SLEEVE through
the CANNULA down to the bone. Place
the appropriate sized DRILL BIT through
the DRILL SLEEVE (Figure 21). Before
the DRILL BIT contacts the bone, start
the drill. Advance the spinning DRILL
BIT through the bone bicortically. Use
fluoroscopy to verify the appropriate
location of the DRILL BIT in the bone.
(Note: if reconstruction screws are used,
do not advance the DRILL BIT through the
second cortex of the bone. Only advance
it as far as is necessary to obtain proper
fixation.)
CAUTION: In cases where hard cortical
bone is encountered or at the surgeon’s
preference, a 5.0mm TAP can be used to
ease insertion of the screws.

Fig. 21

13

Zimmer® Natural Nail® System Antegrade Femoral Surgical Technique

Fig. 22

With the DRILL BIT in place and the DRILL
SLEEVE pressed against the bone, the
length of screw needed is indicated by
the etch marks on the DRILL BIT where
it exits the DRILL SLEEVE (Figure 22).
The tip of the drill should be no more
than 5mm through the far cortex of the
bone to reduce the risk of complications
associated with screw protrusion.
(Alternatively, the DRILL BIT and DRILL
SLEEVE can be removed and the SCREW
DEPTH GAUGE used to measure the
length of screw.)
Remove the DRILL BIT and DRILL
SLEEVE. Place the appropriate length
and diameter screw through the SCREW
CANNULA into the bone (Figure 23).
Use the 3.5mm HEX SCREWDRIVER to
advance the screw to achieve bicortical
purchase (Figure 24) (the screw head
should sit on the near cortex of the bone)
(Figure 25). The screws are self tapping
so tapping should not be necessary.

Fig. 23

If using the CAPTURED SCREWDRIVER,
place the appropriate screw on the
3.5mm HEX and tighten the screw to the
CAPTURED SCREWDRIVER by turning the
knob next to the handle clockwise.
CAUTION: When using any screwdriver,
do not torque it beyond the calibration
line next to the handle. Do not drive the
screws into the bone under power, as
damage to the bone, screws or nail could
result.

Note: If placing both transverse screws,
place the static screw first. When
placing the dynamic screw, advance the
cannula to the top of the static screw
head. Do not advance the cannula to the
bone.

Repeat this technique to place additional
proximal screws as necessary.

Zimmer® Natural Nail® System Antegrade Femoral Surgical Technique

Distal Targeting – Freehand
Technique
All nails 9.3mm in diameter and larger
use a 5.0mm screw (4.3mm drill bit)
distally. The 8.3mm Greater Trochanter
Entry Point Nail uses a 4.0mm screw
(3.3mm drill bit) distally. Use the 3.3mm
(color coded WHITE) drill bit and 4.0mm
(color coded WHITE) screws when using
the 8.3mm Greater Troch Nail in place of
the 4.3mm bit and 5.0mm screws listed
below.
Insert the 4.3mm FREE HAND DRILL BIT
(color coded RED) into the FREE HAND
TARGETING WAND. Finger tighten the
SET SCREW. Position the C-arm in order
to get a lateral view of the distal femur.
Adjust the position of the C-arm so that
the hole through the nail appears as a
perfect circle on the monitor. Bring the
tip of the drill bit to the skin and use the
C-arm to center it over the hole that you
desire to place a screw through. Make
a stab incision at this point and dissect
down to the bone. Place the tip of the
drill bit against the bone (Figure 26).
Verify that the tip of the drill bit is in the
center of the hole. Align the drill bit with
the C-arm beam. Tap the drill bit into the
bone using the MALLET.

Loosen the SET SCREW and remove the
FREE HAND TARGETING WAND, leaving
the DRILL BIT in place. Slide the FREE
HAND TISSUE PROTECTION SLEEVE over
the DRILL BIT (Figure 27). Attach the
DRILL to the DRILL BIT and advance the
drill bit through the bone. Verify that the
drill bit has gone through the hole in the
nail.

Fig. 26

Fig. 27

Zimmer® Natural Nail® System Antegrade Femoral Surgical Technique

Remove the drill bit. Measure the depth
of the hole using the FREE HAND SCREW
DEPTH GAUGE (Figure 28). (Alternatively,
the appropriate length of screw can be
measured using the numbered etch on
the DRILL BIT closest to the end of the
FREE HAND TISSUE PROTECTION SLEEVE
when the DRILL BIT is in the bone and
the SLEEVE is touching the bone.) Insert
the appropriate length screw using the
3.5mm HEX SCREWDRIVER (Figure 29).
If using the CAPTURED SCREWDRIVER,
place the appropriate screw on the
3.5mm HEX and tighten the screw to the
CAPTURED SCREWDRIVER by turning the
knob next to the handle clockwise.
CAUTION: If using the CAPTURED
SCREWDRIVER, do not torque the
CAPTURED SCREWDRIVER beyond the
calibration line next to the handle. Do
not drive the screws into the bone under
power, as damage to the bone, screws
and nail could result.

Finalize Implant Placement

Nail Extraction

Observe the depth of the nail in the
proximal femur. Ridges in the targeting
guide barrel indicate 5 and 10mm of
depth. A 3.0mm pin can be placed
through the hole in the guide to
approximate the position of the top of
the nail.

Use the C-arm to locate any distal
screws. Remove the distal screws using
a 3.5mm HEX SCREWDRIVER. Remove
the nail cap (if one was inserted) with a
5.0mm HEX SCREWDRIVER. Expose the
proximal screws and use a 3.5mm HEX
SCREWDRIVER to remove them. If bone
has grown into any of the screws, nail
cap or nail that would inhibit implant
removal, use instruments such as
rongeurs, dental picks or drills to remove
bone in-growth before attempting
implant removal. Take care not to
damage the implant itself while removing
ingrown bone.

Disconnect any TARGETING MODULES
from the TARGETING GUIDE HANDLE and
set aside. Place a 2.0MM GUIDE PIN
through the CONNECTING BOLT down to
the level of the proximal screws. Loosen
and remove the CONNECTING BOLT from
the nail. Remove the TARGETING GUIDE
HANDLE and set aside.
Choose the appropriate height
cannulated NAIL CAP. Secure the
selected NAIL CAP to the NAIL CAP
INSERTER using the NAIL CAP RETAINING
SHAFT. Slide the cannulated NAIL CAP
over the 2.0MM GUIDE PIN and tighten
to the nail. Using the C-arm, verify that
the cap is completely seated to the top
of the nail.
Disengage the NAIL CAP INSERTER from
the NAIL CAP. Remove the 2.0MM GUIDE
PIN.

Fig. 30

To remove the nail, slide a 2.0MM GUIDE
PIN into the top of the nail. Insert the
CANNULATED EXTRACTION ADAPTER over
the wire into the top of the nail (Figure
30). Tighten the adapter to the nail using
a PIN WRENCH. Attach a slaphammer
or other impaction device and impact to
back out the nail (Figure 31).
Greater Trochanter Entry Point Nail Note:
The nail will rotate approximately 90° as
it is removed from the femur.

Close all wounds and apply the
appropriate dressings.
If a module was used, remove the
connecting knob from the module before
cleaning and sterilization.

Postoperative Care
Early range of motion exercises of the
hip and knee are encouraged. Allow
toe-touch weight bearing to progress
to full weight bearing as fracture callus
increases on the x-ray films.*

* It is the responsibility of the surgeon to determine what is the most suitable postoperative care depending on each patient’s health condition.
