Overview
The 2.7 mm Cortex Locking Screw is a high-precision orthopedic implant designed to provide secure fixation in cortical bone during fracture fixation, osteotomies, and joint stabilization procedures. Offering superior locking capabilities, this screw ensures optimal bone alignment and stability, promoting faster healing and reducing the risk of complications. Crafted from high-quality materials, it delivers excellent strength and reliability, making it ideal for a range of orthopedic applications.
Key Features
- Precision Engineering: The 2.7 mm Cortex Locking Screw features a carefully engineered design with self-tapping threads, ensuring secure engagement with bone and minimal disruption during insertion. The locking mechanism provides a rigid, stable fixation that helps prevent screw backout and migration over time.
- High-Quality Material: Made from premium titanium or stainless steel, the screw offers enhanced biocompatibility and strength while remaining lightweight to reduce surgical impact. These materials ensure long-term durability and resistance to corrosion.
- Locking Mechanism: The screw’s locking design interacts with locking plates, providing superior fixation that is particularly beneficial in osteoporotic bone or difficult fractures. This mechanism enhances bone healing by minimizing motion at the fracture site.
- Versatile Application: The 2.7 mm Cortex Locking Screw is ideal for use in both trauma and reconstructive surgery. It is suitable for fractures in small to medium-sized bones such as those in the hand, wrist, and foot.
- Easy Insertion: With its smooth shaft and sharp threads, the screw ensures easy insertion and optimal purchase in the bone, reducing the risk of malposition and improving the overall surgical experience.
- Minimally Invasive: Designed to work with locking plate systems, this screw facilitates a minimally invasive approach to fracture fixation, reducing soft tissue disruption and supporting faster recovery.
Indications for Use
- Fractures of small to medium-sized bones (e.g., hand, wrist, foot)
- Osteotomies and joint fixation
- Fractures requiring secure, rigid internal fixation
- Trauma and corrective surgeries where plate and screw combinations are needed
- Osteoporotic bone fractures
Benefits
- Enhanced Stability: The locking mechanism ensures a rigid fixation, which helps prevent screw loosening or backout, even in challenging fracture sites or osteoporotic bone.
- Faster Healing: By providing stable and secure fixation, the 2.7 mm Cortex Locking Screw promotes faster bone healing and reduces the risk of complications such as delayed union or non-union.
- Minimized Risk of Malposition: The self-tapping threads and smooth shaft design provide better control during insertion, reducing the likelihood of misalignment or screw failure.
- Reduced Post-Operative Pain: The minimally invasive design and smooth insertion process help reduce soft tissue damage, leading to less post-operative pain and faster recovery times.
Available Sizes:
- Available in lengths ranging from 10 mm to 40 mm to accommodate various patient needs and fracture types.
