Motorized long bone distraction intramedullary nails are implantable devices designed to gradually lengthen or stabilize long bones like the femur or tibia. They use an internal motor and telescoping rod system to apply controlled force, aiding fracture healing or correcting limb length discrepancies through gradual distraction.
These devices are typically regulated as implants, often requiring premarket approval or conformity assessment depending on the jurisdiction. They are supplied sterile and pre-assembled for surgical use, with external controllers for motor activation during procedures.
