Cannulated Screw System

Product Overview

The Acumed Cannulated Screw System consists of screws, washers, and instruments designed to provide fixation for fractures, fusions, and osteotomies of large and small bones appropriate for the size of the device. The screws are available in three diameters (4.0 mm, 6.5 mm, and 7.3 mm), in lengths ranging from 30 mm to 150 mm to accommodate various indications and patient anatomy. All screws and washers are made of titanium alloy per ASTM F136. All implants are available nonsterile.

Partially threaded screws may be used to lag one bone fragment to another, where the bone fragment is captured by the threads of the screw and pulled toward the near cortex fragment on the head side of the screw. Fully threaded screws are intended to be used to stabilize fractures with little to no compression across the fracture.

The cannulated screws and instruments also allow for minimally invasive percutaneous insertion. The Cannulated Screw System is commonly used in the hip, pelvis, knee, ankle, and foot.

Screw System Features

  • Wide range of screw lengths address a variety of fracture patterns
  • Reverse cutting flutes are designed to assist in the removal of partially threaded screws (not included on some short
    thread 4.0 mm screws)
  • Both threaded and fluted guide wires may assist the surgeon in targeting and establishing provisional fixation
  • Both partially and fully threaded screws with a cancellous thread form are intended to treat a variety of fracture patterns
  • Fully threaded screws are designed to maintain the compression generated during provisional fixation

TripleTwist™ Cannula System

This modular cannula system is designed to protect the soft tissues and support a minimally invasive procedure.

The cannulas feature an intuitive locking mechanism and are stacking and interchangeable to streamline the procedure.

The cannulas can be used singularly or sequentially for flexibility and to accommodate procedural variations over nonstacking cannulas.

Parallel Wire Guide

Allows placement of two parallel wires. The drop-in cannula can be assembled after initial wire placement, then adjusted to select the optimal distance between wires and ultimately screw fixation.
