The Synthes 202.740 3.0 mm Cannulated Screw (Long Thread, 40 mm) is a precision orthopedic implant designed for minimally invasive fixation in small bone applications—such as foot, wrist, or small joint arthrodesis. Its long-thread design ensures that almost the entire shaft engages with bone, offering consistent compression and secure hold across the fixation site. Crafted from stainless steel, the screw combines structural integrity with corrosion resistance—making it reliable in challenging surgical environments.

Engineered for streamlined placement, this screw features self-drilling and self-tapping capabilities, eliminating the need for separate drilling or tapping steps in many cases, which reduces procedural time and simplifies operative workflow. The 1.2 mm cannulated core enables precise guidewire-directed insertion, ensuring accurate alignment through narrow or curved bony anatomy. Surgeons benefit from enhanced control via the cruciform recess in the head—compatible with standard cannulated screwdrivers for secure torque application.

Practically, the 202.740 integrates seamlessly into Synthes’ cannulated screw systems and instrumentation trays. Compatible with commonly used 2 mm threaded-hole drill bits, it fits established surgical protocols and toolkits. Its balance of biomechanical performance, ease of use, and reliability makes it a valuable tool in reconstructive and fixation procedures where accuracy and minimal invasiveness are paramount.
