The Synthes 202.720 is a precision-crafted 3.0 mm cannulated screw with a total length of 20 mm, designed for meticulous orthopedic fixation in delicate anatomical settings. Featuring a long-thread design, it provides enhanced purchase in the far fragment—optimal for secure engagement in small-bone applications like phalanges or metacarpals. The cannulated structure (1.2 mm diameter) allows the screw to be guided over a K-wire or guide wire, enabling accurate, minimally invasive, and image-guided positioning during surgery.

Constructed from stainless steel, this screw combines structural strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. Its self-drilling and self-tapping tip streamlines surgical workflow by eliminating the need for pre-drilling or tapping, reducing instrument exchanges. The cruciform recess head ensures secure driver engagement and precise torque control, while the 1.25 mm thread pitch facilitates smooth insertion into cortical bone without compromising fixation strength—critical in high-precision orthopedic procedures.

Clinically, the Synthes 202.720 excels in scenarios requiring stable fixation within limited anatomical space, such as small-bone fractures, osteochondral fragment reconstructions, or arthrodeses in the digits. Its long-thread configuration enhances anchorage in cortical bone while keeping the hardware compact and minimally obtrusive. Seamless compatibility with Synthes’ cannulated screw systems—including guide wires, screwdrivers, and drill bits—ensures integration into established surgical protocols, offering surgeons a reliable and efficient solution for precise small-bone fixation.
