A posterior pelvic nail is a rigid metal rod used to stabilize the pelvic ring following unstable injuries. Surgeons implant the device transversely through the sacrum, connecting it to bone screws placed in the ilium to provide structural support.
These devices are designed as part of a larger implant assembly and are positioned behind the sacroiliac joint. Users should note that these components are intended for surgical fixation and must be integrated with compatible hardware to ensure proper pelvic stabilization.
