The jig consists of an interconnecting bar linking proximal and distal targeting arms, ensuring alignment with pre-drilled holes in the femoral nail for accurate screw insertion. The jig includes sleeves which help in aligning its parallel targeting arms with the drilled holes and in insertion of screws, with innermost of the 3 sleeve occupying the drilled holes spaces and the spaces between the innermost and outermost sleeve are filled with the spacer sleeves. A guide wire stabilizes the jig preventing tilting and ensuring correct placement. The invention involves aligning the nail holes with a C-arm, inserting guide wires and drilling precise holes for screw insertion. An alignment guide with a ring and arrowhead extensions further ensures alignment of the screw holes.
