Synthes 207.045 4.0mm Cancellous Bone Screw Partially Threaded 45mm

Synthes 207.045 4.0mm Cancellous Bone Screw Partially Threaded 45mm

As a 4.0mm diameter screw with a 45mm length, it is a foundational component of the Synthes Small Fragment System. This screw features a partially threaded design, which is the mechanical requirement for creating a "lag effect" to achieve compression across a fracture line in metaphyseal or epiphyseal bone.

Technical specifications

Additional product details

• Manufacturer: Synthes (DePuy Synthes)
• Screw Diameter: 4.0 mm
• Thread Profile: Partially Threaded (Lag Design)
• Screw Length: 45 mm
• Core Diameter: 1.9 mm
• Head Type: 2.5 mm Hexagonal Socket
• Sterility: Non-Sterile (Requires steam sterilization prior to clinical use)
• Quantity: Individually Packaged in original manufacturer's packaging
• Because the proximal shaft is smooth, the screw head draws the near cortex toward the far cortex as the screw is tightened, creating high-pressure interfragmentary compression.
• Cancellous Thread Geometry: The deep, widely spaced threads are specifically designed to "grip" the porous matrix of cancellous bone, which has lower density than cortical bone.
• Biocompatibility and Durability: The surgical steel construction is resistant to corrosion and is designed for long-term internal fixation. It is non-degradable, maintaining its mechanical properties throughout the patient's recovery.
• Versatility in Small Fragment Sets: The 4.0 mm diameter is compatible with standard Synthes instrumentation, including the 2.5 mm drill bit for the pilot hole and the 3.5 mm/4.0 mm countersink tools.
• Trauma Surgery: Stabilization of metaphyseal fractures in the distal radius, tibial plateau, or pilon.
• Malleolar Fixation: Ideal for medial malleolar fractures where the bone is primarily cancellous and requires compression.
• Pediatric Orthopedics: Fixation of epiphyseal injuries or triplane fractures where precision and compression are required.
• Soft Tissue to Bone: Can be used with a spiked washer for the reattachment of ligaments or tendons to metaphyseal bone.
• Status: NEW — Original Manufacturer Packaging. * Important Note:

Condition

New. This item is provided in its original packaging but is Non-Sterile. It must be processed through a validated sterilization cycle (typically steam autoclaving) in accordance with the healthcare facility's protocols and Synthes' IFU (Instructions for Use) before clinical implantation.
