Synthes 207.724 4.0MM Cannulated Screw Long Thread 24mm

Synthes 4.0mm Cannulated Screw | Long Thread | 24mm Length | 207.724

The Synthes 207.724 is a high-precision internal fixation implant designed for minimally invasive orthopedic procedures. As a 4.0mm diameter cannulated screw, it features a hollow central core that allows it to be accurately placed over a pre-positioned guide wire ($1.25\text{mm}$ or $1.35\text{mm}$). This ensures that the screw follows the exact trajectory required for optimal fragment reduction, reducing surgical time and minimizing soft-tissue disruption.

The Long Thread configuration is specifically engineered to provide superior purchase in the far (distal) fragment. Because the threads are concentrated at the tip while the proximal shaft remains smooth, it creates a powerful lag effect, drawing the bone fragments together to achieve maximum interfragmentary compression.

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Guide-Wire Controlled Precision: The cannulated design is the clinical standard for "percutaneous" fixation. Once the guide wire position is confirmed via fluoroscopy, the screw is advanced over the wire, virtually eliminating the risk of "wandering" in dense cancellous bone.

• Optimized Lag Compression: The long-thread design ensures that all threads pass completely across the fracture line into the distal fragment. This allows the screw head to generate compression against the near cortex, pulling the fragments into tight apposition.

• Self-Drilling & Self-Tapping Tip: The distal tip features specialized cutting flutes that allow the screw to be inserted directly over the guide wire without the mandatory need for pre-drilling or tapping in most cancellous bone applications.

• Low-Profile Head Geometry: Designed to minimize palpable hardware and soft-tissue irritation, particularly in subcutaneous areas like the medial malleolus or the small bones of the foot.

• 316L Stainless Steel Biocompatibility: Cold-worked for high fatigue strength, the material is biologically inert and designed to maintain its mechanical properties throughout the healing process.

Applications

• Foot and Ankle Surgery: Fixation of malleolar fractures, calcaneal fragments, and midfoot arthrodesis.

• Hand and Wrist Surgery: Stabilization of carpal fractures and small-bone osteotomies where 24mm of depth is required.

• Pediatric Orthopedics: Fixation of epiphyseal injuries or triplane fractures where precision is critical.

• Trauma Surgery: Stabilization of small-bone fragments and avulsion fractures in periarticular regions.
