<strong>Operative</strong> <strong>Technique</strong><br />

External Apposition/Compression Mode<br />

After successful apposition /<br />

compression a second Locking Screw<br />

is inserted in the round hole distally<br />

to the oblong hole. This will keep the<br />

nail in compressed position (Fig. 47).<br />

Note:<br />

The round oblique hole above<br />

the oblong hole is blocked by the<br />

External Compression Device and<br />

cannot be used while the latter is<br />

attached.<br />

Fig. 47<br />

After inserting the locking screw<br />

distally, the External Compression<br />

Device can be detached (Fig. 48).<br />
