Synthes 207.736 4.0mm Cannulated Screw Long Thread 36mm

Synthes 4.0mm Cannulated Screw | Long Thread | 36mm | 207.736

The Synthes 207.736 is a high-precision internal fixation implant engineered for stable anchorage in cancellous and metaphyseal bone. As a 4.0mm diameter screw with a 36mm length and a long-thread profile, it is a specialized component of the Synthes 4.0mm/4.5mm Cannulated Screw System.

The long-thread design provides a significantly greater number of active thread rotations compared to standard lag screws. This is specifically intended for "positional" fixation, where the thread must engage both bone fragments to maintain a fixed distance, or in osteoporotic bone where maximum surface area contact is required to prevent pull-out.

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Superior Thread Purchase: The extended threading provides a robust mechanical bond in soft metaphyseal bone. This is critical for stabilizing periarticular fragments where bone density may be compromised and every millimeter of thread engagement counts toward construct stability.

• Cannulated Guided Accuracy: The 1.35mm internal bore allows the screw to be delivered over a pre-placed 1.25mm guide wire. This ensures the screw follows the exact planned trajectory, allowing for percutaneous placement and reducing the risk of articular surface penetration.

• Self-Drilling & Self-Tapping Tip: The distal tip is engineered with cutting flutes that eliminate the need for separate drilling and tapping steps. This minimizes surgical time, reduces the amount of instrumentation on the field, and lowers the risk of thermal osteonecrosis.

• Real-Time Depth Control: Integrated 2mm depth markings along the screw shaft allow the surgeon to confirm the screw’s advancement via direct visualization or fluoroscopy, ensuring precise placement relative to the far cortex.

• 316L Stainless Steel Biocompatibility: Forged from vacuum-melted surgical steel, the 207.736 offers high fatigue resistance and the corrosion resistance required for long-term internal fixation in the extremities.

Applications

• Foot & Ankle Surgery: Fixation of malleolar fractures, metatarsal osteotomies (e.g., Chevron or Scarf), and midfoot fusions.

• Hand & Wrist: Stabilization of carpal fractures or distal radius fragments requiring guided precision.

• Pediatric Orthopedics: Precise fixation of epiphyseal fractures (Salter-Harris) where the guide wire protects the growth plate during trajectory planning.

• Periarticular Trauma: Stabilization of small "shattered" fragments around the elbow, ankle, or knee.

Condition & Quality Assurance

• Status: NEW — Factory Sealed.

• Integrity: This implant is securely housed within its original manufacturer's packaging. Both inner and outer seals are intact, ensuring full material integrity and suitability for clinical use in 2026.

• Sterilization Note: This device is typically provided as a NON-STERILE implant within the packaging. It MUST be properly cleaned and sterilized (standard steam autoclave) in accordance with validated hospital protocols and Synthes’ Instructions for Use (IFU) prior to clinical implantation.

• Professional Standards: With over 25 years of experience in orthopedic logistics, Primis Medical ensures all Synthes implants are stored and handled to preserve their mechanical and chemical precision.

Shipping & Handling

• Secure Logistics: Shipped in protective packaging to ensure the precision-machined 36mm threads and 1.35mm cannulation remain pristine and unobstructed.

• Fast Dispatch: Ships within 1 business day.
