The hip nails may be used for basilar neck, subtrochanteric and intertrochanteric fractures. The femoral nails may be used for fractures of the femur below the hip joint including ipsilateral femur fractures, fractures proximal to a total knee arthroplasty and supracondylar fractures, including those with intra-articular extension.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
