Straight Ball Tip Probes
SKU: HB-TR-016
Ball-tip probes navigate the medullary canal and fracture site to assess cortical continuity before reaming for intramedullary nailing of femoral shaft fractures. The smooth ball tip prevents perforation of the anterior femoral cortex during antegrade nailing through the greater trochanter. Trauma surgeons advance the probe to confirm canal patency after guidewire placement.
