The present disclosure discloses an intra-medullary inter-fragmentary compression device which is insertable into the medullary canal of a bone fractured along a longitudinal axis into a distal fragment and a proximal fragment. The intra-medullary inter-fragmentary compression device comprises a distal component and a proximal component (20). The distal component has an elongated connecting tube (14) having a bone engaging threads (16) at one end and a locking member (12) at the other end to slidably engage within a complementary hollow defined within the proximal component (20).
