Synthes 200.810 1.5mm Cortex Self Tapping 10mm Orthopedic Surgical Instrument

Synthes 1.5mm Cortex Screw | Self-Tapping | 10mm Length | 204.810 / 200.810

The Synthes 200.810 is a micro-fixation implant engineered for high-precision stabilization in dense cortical bone. As a 1.5mm diameter screw with a 10mm length, it is a foundational component of the Synthes Modular Hand and CMF (Craniomaxillofacial) systems. This screw is designed to provide stable fixation for small bone fragments where larger hardware would be obstructive or cause further comminution.

The specialized self-tapping distal tip features precision-machined cutting flutes that carve a precise thread path as the screw is advanced into a $1.1\text{mm}$ pilot hole. This eliminates the separate tapping step, significantly reducing operative time in delicate reconstructive procedures.

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Micro-Scale Precision: The $0.5\text{mm}$ thread pitch is specifically designed for the thin, dense cortical layers found in the hand and facial skeleton, providing maximum thread-to-bone contact for secure anchorage.

• Self-Tapping Efficiency: The cutting flutes on the screw tip facilitate direct insertion after the initial drill pass. This is particularly advantageous in fragile micro-fragments where manual tapping might risk fragment displacement or rotation.

• High-Tolerance Interface: Engineered to provide a secure "interference fit," the 200.810 ensures stable fixation that resists the micro-motions that can lead to non-union in small bone fractures.

• Low-Profile Head Geometry: Designed to sit flush within the counter-sunk holes of Synthes micro-plates (e.g., 1.5mm DCP or modular hand plates), minimizing palpable hardware and soft-tissue irritation.

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

Applications

• Hand and Wrist Surgery: Fixation of phalangeal fractures, metacarpal head fragments, and small-bone osteotomies.

• Craniomaxillofacial (CMF) Surgery: Stabilization of midface fractures, orbital rim repairs, and small-bone grafts.

• Pediatric Orthopedics: Fixation of small-bone avulsions or micro-epiphyseal injuries where avoiding the growth plate is critical.

• Reconstructive Surgery: Anchoring micro-plating constructs in the upper extremity or facial skeleton.

Condition & Quality Assurance
