Synthes 208.410 6.5mm Cannulated Screw 16mm Thread 75mm

Synthes 6.5mm Cannulated Screw | 16mm Thread | 75mm Length | 208.410

The Synthes 208.410 is a robust internal fixation implant designed for high-load applications in large bone structures. As a 6.5mm diameter cannulated screw, it features a hollow central core that allows for precise placement over a pre-positioned 2.8mm guide wire. This system enables the surgeon to achieve perfect anatomical alignment via fluoroscopy before the screw is advanced, minimizing the risk of misplacement in critical zones like the femoral neck or sacroiliac joint.

The 16mm Short Thread configuration is specifically engineered to create a powerful lag effect. By ensuring all 16mm of thread bypass the fracture line and engage only the distal fragment, the smooth proximal shaft allows the screw head to draw the fragments together, generating high-pressure interfragmentary compression.

Technical & Clinical Advantages

• Guide-Wire Precision: The cannulated design is essential for minimally invasive (percutaneous) techniques. Once the guide wire is verified, the screw is driven over the wire, ensuring the final implant follows the exact intended trajectory.

• Maximum Interfragmentary Compression: The 16mm thread length is optimized for "lagging" fragments. Because the threads do not cross the fracture line in the proximal bone, the screw acts as a mechanical vice, pulling the distal bone toward the head.

• Self-Drilling & Self-Tapping Tip: The distal tip features high-efficiency cutting flutes that allow the screw to be inserted directly over the guide wire in most cancellous bone applications, reducing operative steps and time.

• High-Torque Hex Drive: The 4.0mm hexagonal recess provides the structural integrity required to transmit the high torque levels necessary for deep insertion into the femoral or pelvic cortex without stripping.

• 316L Stainless Steel Biocompatibility: Forged for high fatigue resistance, this material is designed to withstand the significant cyclic loads associated with hip and pelvic fractures during the healing process.

Applications

• Hip Surgery: Fixation of femoral neck fractures (intracapsular) using a parallel "inverted triangle" screw configuration.

• Pelvic & Acetabular Trauma: Stabilization of sacroiliac (SI) joint disruptions and slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE).

• Knee Surgery: Compression of large tibial plateau fractures or distal femoral condyle fractures.

• Arthrodesis: Large-joint fusions, including triple arthrodesis of the foot and ankle.
