Features & Benefits

Orthofix OsteoTite Bone Screws with hydroxyapatite coating may eliminate the need to replace the external fixation system with an alternative treatment for long term therapy.
The hydroxyapatite coating is complemented by the well-established conical design of the Orthofix screws. Each thread cuts a new, slightly larger path in the bone on insertion, providing excellent bone purchase.
They are available Cortical bone screw and self drilling cortical bone screw
Using a hydroxyapatite surface screw, the bone grows into and onto the hydroxyapatite so that the border between the two materials becomes indistinct
This biological bond is a strong anchor which will insure long-term stability of the bone-screw construct, allowing it to withstand repetitive loading cycles without loosening of the screw
No significant difference in insertion torque between hydroxyapatite-coated and uncoated screws
The extraction torque is significantly greater with hydroxyapatite-coated screws than with uncoated screws
It is possible to remove the hydroxyapatite-coated screws without the need for hospitalisation, sedation or anaesthesia
A clinical study demonstrated a significantly lower incidence of pin track infection with hydroxyapatite-coated screws than with uncoated screws
A significant correlation between pin track infection and implantation in a metaphyseal site was found with uncoated screws, but not with hydroxyapatite-coated screws

Indication

Indicated to secure fixation in cortical, cancellous and osteoporotic bone.
