The DePuy 1340-66 Küntscher Nail Intramedullary Rod 12 mm × 46 cm is a precision-manufactured orthopedic implant designed to provide dependable internal stabilization for adult long bone fractures, particularly femoral shaft fractures. Built in the classic Küntscher nail style, this curved intramedullary rod fits within the medullary canal, offering controlled load-sharing support that aligns with the natural biomechanics of the bone. Its 12 mm diameter and extended 46 cm length are tailored to meet the demands of adult fracture fixation while promoting effective bone healing and functional alignment.
Unlike extramedullary plating systems, the DePuy Küntscher intramedullary nail delivers internal support from within, facilitating earlier mobility and reduced soft-tissue disruption. The curved design improves anatomical conformity to the femur’s natural arc, helping to maintain proper alignment during the postoperative period. This internal fixation method is widely trusted in orthopedic trauma care for managing simple transverse, oblique, and select comminuted diaphyseal fractures where intramedullary support is indicated.
Manufactured to rigorous orthopedic standards with durable, biocompatible materials, the DePuy 1340-66 nail integrates seamlessly into established surgical protocols. Its reliable structural integrity and proven fixation approach provide surgeons with the confidence needed for challenging trauma cases and complex fracture patterns. Whether used in high-volume trauma centers or specialized orthopedic practices, this intramedullary rod remains a cornerstone choice for effective long bone stabilization and predictable clinical outcomes.
