4.5MM Malleolar Screw
+ Description
The Ø4.5mm Malleolar Screw is a specialized orthopedic implant designed for the fixation of medial and lateral malleolar fractures, as well as other fractures in cancellous bone regions.
Featuring a partially threaded shaft, this screw provides interfragmentary compression, ensuring stable fixation and accelerated healing.
The cancellous thread profile enhances bone purchase, making it ideal for fixation in the distal tibia, ankle, and other weight-bearing joints.
+ Indications
- Specifically designed for medial and lateral malleolar fractures in the ankle joint.
- Ideal for fracture fixation in cancellous bone, ensuring secure stabilization in soft bone structures.
- Commonly used in tibia and fibula fractures, where compression fixation is required.
- Supports osteotomies and foot/ankle reconstructive procedures, providing long-term stability.
- Suitable for trauma and revision surgeries, ensuring effective fracture management in high-load regions.
+ Key Features
- Material: Manufactured from Stainless Steel (316L) or Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) for biocompatibility, strength, and corrosion resistance.
- Partially Threaded Design: Provides effective interfragmentary compression, promoting bone healing and stability.
- Optimized Cancellous Thread Profile: Enhances bone engagement, particularly in softer cancellous bone.
- Low-Profile Head: Minimizes soft tissue irritation, ensuring patient comfort and reduced risk of post-operative complications.
- Hexagonal Head: Allows for secure torque transmission, ensuring easy insertion and removal.
- Self-Tapping Tip: Facilitates easy insertion, reducing the need for pre-drilling and pre-tapping.
- Polished or Anodized Finish: Enhances biocompatibility, minimizing the risk of implant-related complications.
