<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 />

After inserting the locking screw<br />
distally, the External Compression<br />
Device can be detached (Fig. 48).<br />
