About

The DiPHOS Nail is indicated for fractures, fracture dislocations and non-unions of the proximal and distal humerus.

The innovative polymeric material CFR PEEK creates an effective anti-pullout system for proximal screws. Moreover, no galvanic corrosion phenomena can occur between screws and nail, enabling an easy removal. DIPHOS NAIL allows for multiple configurations of screw positioning. The screw is completely dedicated to the stabilization of Greater Tuberosity.
