Description

From Which Medical Device

Approved indications for the device are fractures, fusions and osteotomies of the upper and lower extremities.
 
Variable Thread Pitch - The wider thread pitch at the tip of the screw penetrates the bone faster than the finer trailing threads, compressing the two fragments gradually as the screw is advanced.
 
Cannulated - Facilitates accurate percutaneous insertion with minimal soft tissue dissection.
 
Headless - Allows the titanium screws to be implanted in and around articular regions with minimal risk of impingement or soft tissue irritation.
