Description

The standard Kompressor Compression Screw is a two-piece fixation device intended for the use in the reduction, stabilization, and internal fixation of bone fractures. The 2-piece design incorporates the use of a leading and trailing screw component. The implant utilizes a variance in thread pitch between the leading and trailing portions of the screw to reduce and fix fracture fragments, and is available in a variety of sizes to accommodate various fracture types and sites.
