About Cancellous Screw
Cancellous Screws are widely used in orthopedic trauma surgeries to stabilize fractures in the metaphyseal or spongy bone areas of long bones. Made from high-quality surgical-grade stainless steel, they ensure durability, strength, and biocompatibility. Advin Health Care provides these screws to support surgeons in achieving precise and stable fracture fixation. The coarse threading of the screws allows for excellent grip in cancellous bone, reducing the risk of loosening and enhancing post-operative stability. These screws can be used alone or with plates, making them versatile for a variety of fracture types and aiding faster functional recovery.

Precision Engineering for Superior Bone FixationThese cancellous screws are precision machined using advanced technology, resulting in consistent performance and durability in orthopedic procedures. The deep threads provide superior bone engagement, minimizing the risk of loosening even in areas with lower bone density.
Sterility and Versatility EnsuredEach screw is EO sterilized and packaged in blister packs or boxes to maintain sterility and ensure safety. With head options in hexagonal or slotted designs and thread configurations available as partial or fully threaded, these implants offer flexibility for surgeons according to fixation requirements.
Wide Application and ComplianceDesigned for use in both small and large bone fracture fixation, these screws comply with global standards (ISO 13485, CE Marked) and offer excellent radiographic visibility and corrosion resistance. Their light weight and biocompatibility make them ideal for varied surgical scenarios, ensuring optimal patient outcomes.
FAQ's of Cancellous Screw:
Q: How are the Cancellous Screws used in orthopedic surgery?
A: Cancellous Screws are primarily used for the fixation of small and large bone fractures. They can be inserted manually during orthopedic surgery to provide strong bone grip due to their deep, cancellous threads, and are suitable for various fracture types depending on length and diameter selection.
Q: What are the available options for thread type and length?
A: These screws are offered with partial or fully threaded designs. Partial threading is typically chosen for secure fixation with some allowance for bone compression, while full threading provides robust grip along the entire screw length. Thread length and type selection depends on the clinical requirement.
Q: When should I choose a cannulated versus a solid screw?
A: Cannulated screws are ideal when precise placement over a guide wire is needed, especially in minimally invasive procedures or complex anatomical areas. Solid screws are recommended for situations where maximum strength and rigidity are required.
Q: Where are Cancellous Screws most effectively applied?
A: They are most commonly used in the fixation of fractures of the small and large bones, such as those in the hip, femur, ankle, and wrist. Their high visibility under X-ray aids in accurate placement during surgery.
Q: What benefits do these screws offer in terms of biocompatibility and corrosion resistance?
A: Manufactured from high-grade stainless steel or titanium, these screws exhibit excellent corrosion resistance and high biocompatibility, reducing the risk of allergic reactions and long-term complications within the body.
Q: How should Cancellous Screws be stored and handled before use?
A: These screws must be stored in a dry and sterile environment to maintain their integrity and sterility. The EO-sterilized blister pack or box should be opened only in a sterile field at the time of surgery.
