[Interlocking intramedullary nailing. A solid aiming device for distal locking]

An additional aiming-device to the original Hielekes intramedullar locking nail system is presented and described. It simplifies greatly the difficult performance of distal locking of a tibial nail. The principle is a firm connection between the intramedullar nail and the aiming-device as well as between the aiming-device and the tibia.
