Sharma Orthopedic Supracondylar Nail – Surgical Training & Educational Video

🔹 Learn about the Supracondylar Nail: A Key Solution for Distal Femur Fractures! 🔹
In this training and educational video, we demonstrate the Sharma Orthopedic Supracondylar Nail procedure using an artificial bone to provide a step-by-step surgical approach for orthopedic professionals and medical students.

What is a Supracondylar Nail?
A supracondylar nail is an intramedullary implant used to stabilize distal femur fractures occurring just above the knee joint. This technique utilizes a retrograde approach (inserted from below the knee) to provide internal fixation and promote effective bone healing, particularly beneficial for osteoporotic patients and complex fracture cases.

Key Features of Supracondylar Nailing:
✅ Minimally Invasive Approach – Less soft tissue damage compared to open plate fixation.
✅ Superior Stability – Promotes faster healing and early mobilization.
✅ Ideal for Osteoporotic Bone – Effective in elderly patients where lateral plating might not be optimal.

Surgical Procedure Overview:
1️⃣ A small incision is made below the knee joint.
2️⃣ A guide wire is inserted through the fracture site.
3️⃣ The Sharma Orthopedic Supracondylar Nail is drilled into the medullary cavity of the femur.
4️⃣ The nail is aligned and locked with screws to maintain proper fracture stabilization.

Considerations & Potential Complications:
⚠️ Proper patient selection is crucial.
⚠️ Possible complications include nail misalignment, infection, nerve damage, or screw loosening.
⚠️ Accurate placement is essential to prevent malunion or fixation failure.
