An intramedullary nail for insertion into a cavity formed in a fractured bone, such as a fractured femur, is provided. The nail includes proximal and distal portions, and a cylindrically shaped, tubular shaft portion disposed between the proximal and distal portions. The proximal portion of the nail has a cylindrically shaped, tubular body with a curved longitudinal axis extending between its first and second opposed ends, and an end plate attached to the cylindrically shaped, tubular body at the first end. The cylindrically shaped, tubular shaft portion of the nail extends between the second end of the proximal portion of the nail and the distal portion of the nail.
