Synthes 202.714 3.0mm Cannulated Screw Long Thread 14mm

Synthes 3.0mm Cannulated Screw | Long Thread | 14mm | 202.714

The Synthes 202.714 is a high-precision internal fixation implant engineered for stable anchorage in small bone fragments. As a 3.0mm diameter screw with a compact 14mm overall length, it is a specialized component of the Synthes Cannulated Screw System.

The cannulated design features a 1.2mm internal bore, allowing the screw to be accurately guided over a 1.1mm guide wire. This ensures a precise trajectory—a critical requirement for percutaneous applications or when navigating the narrow corridors of the phalanges, metacarpal heads, or carpals. The long-thread configuration is specifically engineered to maximize surface area engagement in the far fragment, providing superior pull-out resistance in areas where bone stock is at a premium.

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 an increased "bite" in the far cortex. This is particularly advantageous in osteochondral repairs or small-joint arthrodesis (such as the DIP joint) 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. This minimizes bone debris, reduces operative time, and preserves the structural integrity of the surrounding bone.

• Ultra-Low Profile Head: The cruciform recess head is designed to be minimally obtrusive. This is essential in hand and foot surgery where hardware prominence can lead to tendon irritation or limited range of motion.

• 316L Stainless Steel Biocompatibility: Forged from cold-worked surgical steel, the 202.714 offers high fatigue strength and the corrosion resistance required for long-term internal fixation in the extremities.

Applications

• Hand & Wrist Surgery: Fixation of phalangeal and metacarpal head fractures, or stabilization of carpal fragments.

• Foot & Ankle Surgery: Stabilization of small-fragment metatarsal fractures and osteochondral fragment fixation in the talus or midfoot.

• Small Joint Arthrodesis: Providing stable fixation for fusions in the PIP or DIP joints of the fingers and toes.

• Pediatric Orthopedics: Precise fixation of small epiphyseal fractures where guided placement is necessary to protect the growth plate in 2026.
