The Mayday arthrodesis nail has so far been supplied on a custom made basis only. The device is a two part intra-medullary nail designed for arthrodesis of the knee, where both components are introduced via the knee joint and finally joined by a locking pin.
The Mayday Nail Advantages
•Two part nail for arthrodesis of the knee
•Insertion of both components via single knee incision
•Knee arthrodesis is possible even if there is an ipsilateral hip replacement
•Custom manufactured to suit individual anatomy
