As reported: "the jig is not aligning with the proximal locking holes and therefore had an 'airshot'.The locking was then completed freehand but unfortunately post op the patient stood and twisted and has sustained a fracture around the proximal part of the nail where they had drill, probably through the stress riser caused by the hole in the bone".
