Synthes 207.730 4.0mm Cannulated Screw Long Thread 30mm

Synthes 4.0mm Cannulated Screw | Long Thread | 30mm | 207.730

The Synthes 207.730 is a high-precision internal fixation implant engineered for stable anchorage in cancellous and metaphyseal bone fragments. As a 4.0mm diameter screw with a 30mm length, it is a foundational component of the Synthes 4.0mm/4.5mm Cannulated Screw System, designed for procedures where a precise trajectory and maximal thread engagement are critical.

The cannulated design features a 1.35mm internal bore, allowing the screw to be accurately guided over a 1.25mm guide wire. This ensures a precise trajectory—a critical requirement for percutaneous applications or when navigating narrow corridors near articular surfaces. The long-thread configuration is specifically engineered to maximize surface area engagement across the fracture line, providing superior pull-out resistance compared to short-threaded variants.

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Precision Guided Placement: The internal cannulation facilitates image-guided insertion over a guide wire. This allows the surgeon to confirm the trajectory via fluoroscopy before the screw is seated, significantly reducing the risk of articular penetration or unintended cortical exit.

• Enhanced Long-Thread Anchorage: The extended thread length provides increased "bite" across the bone fragments. This is particularly advantageous in osteochondral repairs or small-joint arthrodesis where maximum purchase is required to maintain stability under physiological load.

• Self-Drilling & Self-Tapping Tip: The distal tip is engineered with cutting flutes that eliminate the need for separate drilling and tapping steps in most cancellous bone applications. This reduces operative time, minimizes bone debris, and preserves the structural integrity of the surrounding bone.

• Low-Profile Hexagonal Head: The hexagonal socket allows for high torque application while maintaining a low-profile head. This minimizes hardware prominence, which is critical in areas with thin subcutaneous cover like the malleoli or the foot.

• 316L Stainless Steel Biocompatibility: Forged from vacuum-melted surgical steel, the 207.730 offers high fatigue strength and the corrosion resistance required for long-term internal fixation through the 2026 healing cycle.

Applications

• Foot & Ankle Surgery: Fixation of malleolar fractures, metatarsal osteotomies, and midfoot fusions.

• Trauma Reconstruction: Stabilization of avulsion fractures and periarticular fragments around the elbow or knee.

• Pelvic & Acetabular Surgery: Providing stable anchorage in fractures requiring a 4.0mm diameter for optimal shear strength.

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