Open the catalog to page 1CAUTION: Federal Law (USA) restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a board certified physician. WARNING: If there is no sufficient bone healing, wrong or incomplete postoperative care, implant might break. Attention: The ITS. cannulated screws - except for the Dens Axis screw - are not suitable for use in the spinal column. The indication range for cannulated screws may vary according to the bone quality and physique of the patient.

Open the catalog to page 3Preface ITS. GmbH provides various cannulated screw types with different diameters and lengths covering a wide range of indications for fracture treatment in trauma surgery. Low-profile screw heads with small diameters help minimize soft tissue irritation and are suitable for minimally invasive methods. We offer customized equippping of surgical trays so that users can have trays put together according to their requirements and suggestions.
Open the catalog to page 5Properties Properties of the material: • Screw material: TiAl6V4 ELI • Easier removal of the implant after the fracture has healed • Improved fatigue strength of the implant • Reduced risk of inflammation and allergy • Self-drilling & self-tapping • Cannulated for minimally invasive treatment and guided insertion • Flat and curved washers (adapted to the screw head, for optimal contact to the bone surface) • Various thread types for a wide range of indications • * Back-tapping flank for easier explantation

Open the catalog to page 9Diaphyseal fractures of long bones In advanced osteoporosis Obesity Lack of patient compliance Time of operation • Primary: Within the first hours after trauma • Secondary: After detumescence, intermediate fixation with external fixation or extension
Open the catalog to page 10D=2.7mm cannulated Cortical Screw Indications: • • • • Fractures of the proximal and distal Radius Fractures of the proximal Ulna Fractures of the Scaphoid Bone Fractures of the Tarsal Optionally drilling Predrilling is possible in strong cortical bone with a drill point equal to the core diameter of the screw for easier insertion of the cannulated screw Place the spiral drill, cannulated, D=2.0mm, AO Connector over the guide wire and perform drilling under fluoroscopy. Attention: Do not drill further than the tip of the guide wire as this would impair the firm fixation of the guide wire...
Open the catalog to page 11Identification of screw length Place screw depth gauge (59162) over guide wire and insert it through the soft tissue down to the bone. Then read off the required length measurement at the end of the calibrated guide wire. Optional use of washer The use of a washer is recommended in the presence of very osteoporotic bone. Through the additional bone contact surface, the screw load will be distributed across a larger area and reduce countersinking of the screw head into the osteoporotic bone.
Open the catalog to page 12Placement of the screw Place the D=2.7mm cannulated Cortical Screw with a short variable or a variable thread (31272-XX/31277-XX) over the guide wire and insert it using the screwdriver, cannulated, WS 2.5, L=120mm (56253-120). Finally, remove the guide wire and confirm correct position under fluoroscopy.
Open the catalog to page 13D=3.5mm cannulated Cortical Screw Indications: • Fractures of the Malleolus medialis/ lateralis • Fractures of the proximal and distal Radius and Humerus • Fractures of the proximal Ulna • Fractures of the Patella Fractures of the distal Tibia Fractures of the upper ankle Fractures of the Tarsal Fractures of the Talus Ligament fixation Optionally drilling Predrilling is possible in strong cortical bone with a drill point equal to the core diameter of the screw for easier insertion of the cannulated screw Place the spiral drill, cannulated, D=2.5mm, AO Connector over the guide wire and...

Finally, remove the guide wire and confirm correct position under fluoroscopy.
