An implant and method are provided for treating a fractured bone. The implant includes a generally elongated member having a first configuration for introduction between body tissue layers and a second configuration in-situ having a curved portion. The generally elongated member includes a plurality of alternating projections and slots and a plurality of occlusions wherein each of the occlusions is positioned between adjacent projections. The occlusions at least partially occlude an upper and/or lower side of the associated slot. Additionally, the projections may be configured to overlap each other when the implant is deployed in the second configuration. The occlusions and/or overlapping projections promote improved fluid flow and dispersion through the deployed implant and into the fractured bone. Also provided are methods for using the implant to treat a bone fracture.
