Product Information
Large, headed screws have presented a challenge to the Foot and Ankle
Specialist when performing hindfoot and ankle fusion procedures. Screw
head prominence creates discomfort for the patient and often results in
hardware removal.1
Designed in conjunction with leading foot and ankle
specialists, the CHARLOTTE® 7.0 Multi-Use Compression Screw and the
DARCO® 7.0mm Headless Compression Screw offer a headless screw with
excellent compression characteristics for use in hindfoot and ankle fusion
procedures.
Surgical Goals
• To minimize screw prominence issues with a headless design.
• To obtain stable fixation using a screw design with excellent strength
and compression characteristics.
• To streamline surgical technique with few steps and a power screw driver
option.
