Intramedullary Nails TFN-ADVANCED™ Proximal Femoral Nailing System

The TFN-ADVANCED™ Proximal Femoral Nailing System (TFNA) is an advanced fixation system for proximal femur fractures. With an outcomes-based design1 and reduced procedural complexity2, it’s designed to meet previously unmet surgical needs in hip fracture treatment.

About This Product

The TFN-ADVANCED Nailing System is a part of the Advanced Nailing System from DePuy Synthes and has features that allow surgeons to address proximal femur fractures.

The system includes:

Outcomes & Evidence

TFN-ADVANCED™ System Locking Mechanism Design Rationale

Explore how our pre-assembled locking mechanism design compares to other cephalomedullary nail designs.

TFN-ADVANCED™ System Evidence Compendium

Get a deeper insight into all the evidence we’ve collected that demonstrates the effectiveness of the TFN-ADVANCED™ System compared to other cephalomedullary nailing systems.

Features & Benefits

Improved Anatomical Fit

We’ve used multi-ethnic 3D computation studies to improve our nail shape to better fit patient anatomies and to help avoid impinging the anterior cortex (compared to nails with a larger curvature radius).3,4

BUMP CUT™ Design

Our titanium alloy and BUMP CUT™ Design of the proximal hole provides improved fatigue strength compared to existing nails of similar size.5*

Advanced Nailing System Technology

The TFN-ADVANCED™ System includes all the features of our Advanced Nailing System, including standard and low-profile locking screws and multiplanar locking technology.
