METALLIC IMPLANTS
Self-breaking screws are produced in titanium alloy and are featured by a proximal element, the screw handle, which is connected to the implant through a thin connection bound to break over a stated torsional effort.
This precaution allows the easy application directly with the powered drill; the use of the screwdriver can be limited to the last insert phase or to the removal. They are produced in diameters 2,0 or 2,7 mm. in a wide range of lenghts. They are suitable for the forefoot, in the Weil’s osteotomies in shortening the lateral rays or, more in general, for the upper limb traumatology.
Instruments, fundamental and easy to use, include the special reduction forceps, useful for the insertion along the ideal axis of the synthesys device, keeping congruent the rim of osteotomy.
