KET SS Shaft Tibia (SSTN) has the following features: 

  • One dynamic and two static transverse locking holes proximally. 
  • Two transverse locking holes and additional AP locking hole distally. 
  • Flat proximal bend for easier insertion, better fit. 
  • Beveled proximal end to prevent soft tissue irritation. 
  • Tip Locking option to cater to distal third fracture as well.

Indication

Femur fractures with bony support (stable fracture in the middle third of the femur, with or without locking):

  • Transverse fractures
  • Short oblique fractures
  • Pseudarthroses

Femur fractures without bony support (unstable fracture in 60% of the femoral length):

  • Fractures near the metaphysics
  • Long torsional fractures
  • Segmental fractures
  • Comminuted fractures
  • Fractures with bone defects
