Orthopedic steel nail price

If a patient has a skeletal lesion that requires surgical treatment and internal fixation with a steel nail, the price of the nail will depend on the location of the lesion. For example, if a patient has an avulsion fracture of the medial ankle that is treated surgically with an incision and internal fixation with a hollow screw, the price of a titanium hollow nail is about$500-600. If a patient has a tibial plateau fracture, the patient is also treated surgically with a titanium hollow tension screw for fixation, which costs about$800-1000 per screw. If the patient has a femoral neck fracture, the cost of a hollow nail is about$1500-1700, depending on the local hospital’s standard.
