[0032] Working principle: when using, the new type of adjustable guide needle is used for the introduction of the antegrade intramedullary nail in the treatment of femoral shaft fracture. According to the patient's physical condition and the anesthesiologist's decision, intraspinal anesthesia or general anesthesia is generally adopted. Usually, lateral position or supine position is adopted. If the patient is supine, the trunk and the affected limb are adducted, and the hip joint on the affected side is flexed by 15°-30°. The patient lies on a visible operating bed or a fracture traction bed; a 2-3 cm oblique incision is made from the proximal femoral greater trochanter on the lateral side of the hip, and if necessary, it is extended to both sides, especially for obese people. The skin and subcutaneous tissue are incised, and the fascia is incised along the direction of the gluteus maximus muscle fibers. The sublevel of the gluteus maximus muscle fascia is identified, and the surgeon touches the piriform fossa or the intertrochanteric fossa with his fingers;
[0033] Insertion of the adjustable guide needle: a kirschner wire is inserted into the piriform fossa plane, and the C-arm machine is used to adjust the position of the kirschner wire insertion point in the femoral trochanteric part.
