3.0mm Cortical Screw for DPO System

The 3.0mm Cortical Screw for DPO System is a veterinary orthopedic fixation screw intended for use with the corresponding DPO plate system. During a double pelvic osteotomy procedure, the selected screw works with the DPO plate to secure the repositioned pelvic segment according to the veterinary surgeon's fixation plan.

The screw has a listed 3.0 mm diameter and a T15 Star drive interface. The T15 interface identifies the required screwdriver connection within the DPO instrument configuration. The screw should be selected and inserted with the corresponding DPO plate, driver and other system components specified for the procedure.

Four length options are available: 16 mm, 18 mm, 20 mm and 22 mm. Length selection should be based on the patient's anatomy, bone dimensions, plate position and the surgeon's planned fixation construct. The available lengths allow the veterinary team to review the screw configuration during preoperative planning and implant preparation.

This cortical screw is a component of the DPO fixation system rather than a stand-alone plate or instrument. It is intended for professional veterinary orthopedic use and should be evaluated together with the selected DPO plate and compatible instrumentation. The supplied product information does not specify the screw material, sterilization status or packaging configuration.
