The Smith & Nephew Richards 122155 Russell‑Taylor Femoral Locking Nail 15 mm × 46 cm (BX/1) is a high‑strength orthopedic implant designed to deliver robust intramedullary stabilization for complex adult femoral fractures. With its substantial 15 mm diameter and extended 460 mm length, this femoral nail provides excellent axial load sharing and mechanical strength — essential for maintaining alignment and supporting early mobilization across a wide variety of fracture patterns. Its cannulated design allows for guidewire‑assisted insertion, enabling surgeons to achieve precise alignment with minimal soft‑tissue disruption, an important factor in modern trauma and reconstructive surgical techniques.

Engineered for dependable clinical performance, the Russell‑Taylor femoral nail features multiple interlocking screw holes that accept locking screws proximally and distally to reinforce axial, rotational, and length stability throughout the healing process. This configuration enhances control over bone fragment positioning and helps reduce the risk of rotational malalignment or implant migration—outcomes that are critical for restoring normal femoral biomechanics and facilitating optimal functional recovery.

Ideal for trauma centers, orthopedic hospitals, and surgical teams, the Smith & Nephew Russell‑Taylor Femoral Locking Nail combines trusted implant design with surgeon‑friendly features that support predictable procedural outcomes. Supplied sterile in a single‑use box (BX/1) and compatible with standard locking screw systems and instrumentation, this intramedullary solution offers clinicians the precision, durability, and versatility needed to manage challenging femoral fractures with confidence and efficiency.
