Stryker’s Wichita Fusion Nail addresses the clinical challenge of achieving successful arthrodesis of the knee. Unlike conventional systems, the Wichita Nail, with its patented design, provides dynamic compression to encourage early weight bearing, and is designed to substantially improves both the likelihood and speed of union.

Key features include:

• Generates intraoperative compression
• Provides postoperative dynamic compression
• Innovative compression screw locks femoral and tibial components, generating intraoperative compression across the joint line
• 6.0mm transversal locking screws (and the interlocking geometry of the components) support rotational stability
• Instrumentation is designed to provide a safe and efficient surgical technique
• Fatigue strength is laboratory tested to 10 million normal gait cycles with no failure
