This is the latest addition to the Zimmer Natural Nail System, and follows the Tibial Nail, which has been commercially available since Feb. 2009.

The Cephalomedullary Nail features an anatomically contoured implant and intuitive instrumentation capable of addressing the needs of patients of all shapes and sizes. It also provides fixation to help restore the natural shape of the femur, and features a small proximal section designed to minimize the amount of bone that must be removed for nail insertion, according to the release.
