The DePuy 1342-41 Küntscher Nail Intramedullary Rod is a precision-manufactured orthopedic implant designed for dependable internal stabilization of long bone fractures. With its 11 mm diameter and 38 cm length, this curved intramedullary rod is engineered to conform to the anatomical curvature of the femoral or tibial medullary canal while delivering robust biomechanical support inside the bone. As a classic Küntscher-style nail, it provides controlled load sharing that aligns with modern fracture healing principles, helping surgeons achieve stable fixation and promote early functional recovery.

This double-pointed intramedullary nail features a contoured profile that enhances alignment during insertion and supports consistent passage through the medullary canal. The design encourages proper anatomical positioning while minimizing soft tissue disruption compared to traditional plating techniques. Used in cases of diaphyseal fractures, this IM rod allows orthopedic trauma specialists to address mid-shaft breaks in weight-bearing bones with confidence and surgical precision.

Built from high-strength, biocompatible materials and engineered to rigorous orthopedic standards, the DePuy 1342-41 Küntscher Nail integrates seamlessly into established surgical workflows for long bone fracture repair. Its legacy design continues to offer reliable performance in trauma centers and orthopedic practices where predictable internal support and controlled healing environments are essential. Whether used in acute fracture management or complex reconstructive scenarios, this intramedullary rod remains a trusted fixation solution for long bone stabilization.
