This study endeavored to systematically examine the influence of different commercially available screw elements on the flow behavior and granulation mechanics of lactose monohydrate saturated at low concentration (5 12%, w/w) with an aqueous polyvinyl‐pyrrolidone binder.
If a bone graft had been used at that stage, and all the available screw holes for the distal fragment had been filled up, the load transmission would intuitively have been more evenly distributed, thereby lessening the stress concentration.
However, in the first generation of locking plates currently available, screw insertion angles are predetermined by manufacturers and are not able to be adjusted during instrumentation [ 6].
The purpose of this article is to present a comprehensive review of the commercially available interference screws and suture anchors, with an emphasis on implant composition, interaction, and design.
In a recent study, Muchitsch et al. [25] compared the stiffness of the retention arms of 16 commercially available RPE screws and found a difference in stiffness of 37.32 %.
In addition, Ramaswamy et al. [ 3] compared the pullout strengths of four different commercially available cannulated screws inserted in polyurethane foam blocks with three different densities (0.16, 0.24 and 0.32 g/cm) simulating osteoporotic, osteopenic and normal bones, respectively.
In this paper, a thorough literature review is proposed to cover the available single-screw geometry models, which are mainly applied to single-screw compressors (SSC).
Available in screw or bayonet fitting.
Two bulbs are now available with screw bases that fit standard sockets.
In addition, limited space is available for screw placement because of the complex anatomy of cervical spine vertebrae [7].
