CORTICAL SCREW
+ Description
The Cortical Screw is a versatile orthopedic implant designed for secure fixation in dense cortical bone regions, offering strong mechanical stability in fracture management and reconstructive procedures. Engineered with a fine-pitch thread and smaller core diameter, it provides excellent grip in hard bone tissue, making it ideal for shaft fractures, osteotomies, and fracture compression techniques.
Available in stainless steel (316L) or titanium (Ti6Al4V), the screw supports a wide range of orthopedic applications across trauma, reconstructive, and revision surgeries. It can be used as a lag screw or as part of a plate-screw fixation system, depending on the surgical requirements.
+ Indications
- Fixation of diaphyseal and metaphyseal fractures
- Cortical bone engagement in long bones like femur, tibia, humerus, and radius
- As lag screws for interfragmentary compression in fracture repair
- Used with plates (DCP, LCP) for stable fixation and bone alignment
- Support for osteotomies and reconstructive orthopedic surgeries
- Fracture fixation in trauma and revision surgeries
+ Key Features
- Fine Thread Pitch : Designed to engage dense cortical bone with maximum pull-out strength.
- Self-Tapping or Standard Option : Offers flexibility during surgery depending on bone quality and procedure type.
- Versatile Head Design : Available in hex, star, or cruciform heads to fit multiple instrument systems.
- Available in Various Lengths & Diameters : Supports broad surgical indications with surgeon-preferred sizing.
- High-Quality Material : Manufactured from ISO & CE-certified stainless steel or titanium for durability, biocompatibility, and corrosion resistance.
- Smooth or Partially Threaded Shaft Options : Enables compression techniques or standard bicortical fixation.
- Compatible with LCP and DCP Systems : Integrates with dynamic compression plates, locking plates, and external fixation frames.
