## Indications for use
The Talon Tm DistalFixrM Proximal Femoral Nail's primary indications are for fixation/stabilization of stable and unstable fractures of the proximal femur including intertrochanteric fractures, pertrochanteric fractures, high subtrochanteric fractures (without shaft extension), and combinations of these fractures. The long nail allows the additional indication of low subtrochanteric fractures. The device is intended to stabilize fragments of the fracture until bony union can occur.
