Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Retrograde Femoral Nail Advanced (RFNA) Cohort
Participants with a distal femur or femoral shaft fracture or who require revision due to a malunion or nonunion will undergo surgery with RFNA based on surgeon's decision and the site's standard of care (SOC). Participants with impending pathologic fracture are also included.
Retrograde Femoral Nail Advanced
No drug will be given as part of this study. Participant will undergo surgery with RFNA based on the surgeon's decision and the site's SOC.
Tibial Nail Advanced (TNA) Cohort
Participants with open or closed, proximal, distal or shaft fractures of the tibia, or who require revision due to a malunion or nonunion will undergo surgery with TNA based on surgeon's decision and the site's SOC.
Tibial Nail Advanced
No drug will be given as part of this study. Participant will undergo surgery with TNA based on the surgeon's decision and the site's SOC.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* Participant receives an RFNA and/or TNA based on a diagnosis of open or closed, unilateral or bilateral femoral shaft or distal femur fracture (RFNA); unilateral or bilateral tibial fracture (TNA); revision of malunion or nonunion of previous fracture, or impending pathologic fracture (RFNA only) that will be treated operatively as part of standard of care. In addition, the following will be included: a) RFNA only: femoral shaft or distal femur fracture can be periprosthetic (PPFx) fracture after total or unicondylar knee arthroplasty, or total or hemi hip arthroplasty requiring nail osteosynthesis
* Participant (legally authorized representative if participant is a minor) voluntarily signs the Institutional Review Board (IRB)/ Ethics committee (EC) approved consent form
* Participant must be able to read and understand questions and responses in an available translated language for patient reported outcomes (PROs)
Exclusion Criteria
* In the opinion of the Principal Investigator, participant is unable to comply with the requirements of the Registry
* Participant has known allergies to implant components
