Small fragment refers to a type of orthopedic implant used for the fixation of fractures or deformities in small bones or in areas with limited soft tissue coverage. These implants are designed to provide stable fixation and allow for early mobilization and quicker recovery. Small fragment implants typically have a diameter of 3.5mm or less and are available in various shapes and sizes, including screws, plates, and wires.This type of plate provides stability to the bone during healing by locking into the fracture site.They are commonly used in procedures such as hand and foot surgeries, ankle fractures, and clavicle fractures. Cortical screws are defined by their smaller pitch and greater number of threads. Their thread diameter to core diameter ratio is less, and they are fully threaded. As their name suggests, cortical screws are used in cortical bone; also known as compact bone, this is the dense outer surface of bone that forms a protective layer around the internal cavity…
