Internal-locking intramedullary nails (talons, claws, wings, wedge-locks, endopins): a mechanics-guided scoping review of designs, failure signatures, and technique imperatives

“Internal-locking” concepts—deployable talons/claws and tanged anchors, winged/wedge-wing head elements, blade-expandable and wedge-locked distal modules, inside-to-out internal distal locking pins (endopins), and shape-memory (nitinol) wings—aim to streamline intramedullary (IM)...
