Abstract:
Intramedullary nails, systems, and methods. The intramedullary nail may include a generally elongate body extending from a first, distal end to a second, proximal end. The distal end may include one or more openings configured to receive one or more bone anchors that extend transversely through the distal end intramedullary nail, and thereby configured to secure the distal end of the nail. The proximal end may also include one or more openings configured to receive one or more bone anchors that extend transversely through the proximal end of the intramedullary nail, and thereby configured to secure the proximal end of the nail. In some embodiments, the proximal opening may contain one or more relief cuts.

Claim (Index 13):
An intramedullary nail system comprising:\n an elongate body extending from a proximal end to a distal end and having a proximal portion and a distal portion, the proximal portion having a longitudinal axis; a first aperture formed in the proximal portion, the first aperture having a bore axis angled relative to the longitudinal axis, a lateral relief cut beginning at a point proximal to the first aperture and extending to a point distal to the first aperture; a primary relief cut surrounding the first aperture, the primary relief cut includes a proximal section, a middle section, and a distal section, the middle section is a straight section that is not parallel to the longitudinal axis of the nail, and the proximal and distal sections are rounded, a radius of the distal section is greater than a radius of the proximal section; and a secondary relief cut positioned on opposite sides of the first aperture, the secondary relief cut includes a proximal section, a middle section, and a distal section formed at an angle relative to the primary relief cut.
