Periprosthetic fracture management enhancements

A method for repairing a periprosthetic fracture comprising:

• joining a fracture stabilization component in mechanical registration with an in situ prosthetic component;
• wherein said in situ prosthetic component includes contingent features configured for use in the repair of the periprosthetic fracture;
• mounting an aligning device in mechanical registration with the in situ prosthetic component;
• locking the fracture stabilization component, an aiming arm, the aligning device and the in situ prosthetic component in mechanical alignment utilizing said contingent features of said in situ prosthetic component;
• utilizing the aiming arm to provide alignment of one or more mechanical cannula with one or more interfaces of said fracture stabilization component;
• securing one or more bone fracture segments associated with the periprosthetic fracture with said fracture stabilization component using one or more screws, wherein the trajectory of at least one of said one or more screws is aligned with at least one of said one or more interfaces of said fracture stabilization component utilizing at least one of said one or more mechanical cannula;
• and
• wherein the mechanical registration is a notched mechanical interface between a femoral nail and the prosthetic component.
