The Acutrak Advantage in Medial & Lateral Malleolus Fracture Fixation

Image

Released in 1994, the original Acutrak Headless Compression Screw was the first fully-threaded headless compression screw with continuously variable thread pitch on the market.

Compression & Rotational Stability

A clinical study showed the fully threaded, continuously variable Acutrak thread pitch provides compression and aids in rotational stability of the fibula1

Designed to Reduce Operative Time & Minimize Patient Discomfort

 

The Acutrak solution may reduce operative time in lateral malleolus fixation procedures compared to plates and screws, as evidenced in clinical studies.1

The headless Acutrak screw may result in less patient discomfort than traditional plate and screw fixation.
