Axton Orthopedic Implants
1 / 5
A Cannulated Headless Compression Screw (CHCS) is utilized in orthopedic surgery to provide stable bone fixation while minimizing protrusion and damage to surrounding soft tissues. Due to its cannulated (hollow) design, surgeons can use a guide wire for precise anatomical placement.

Make a small 1-3 cm incision near the fracture site. Gently separate soft tissues to fully expose the fracture end while avoiding critical nerves and vessels.
Perform manual reduction (traction/rotation) to restore anatomical position. Monitor continuously under C-arm fluoroscopy for accuracy.
Insert the guide wire into the bone along the designed path until the tip reaches the appropriate position, ideally perpendicular to the fracture plane.
Measure the required length using dedicated tools. Choose a screw 2-4 mm shorter than measured. Use a cannulated drill bit to prepare the path, using irrigation for cooling.
Mount the screw onto the compression sleeve and advance manually over the guide wire. Tighten until the fracture closes and the screw head is flush with the bone surface.
