The 6.5mm Cannulated Cancellous Screw (16mm Thread) is a large-diameter screw designed for robust fixation in metaphyseal and epiphyseal bone, often in the femur or tibia. Its cannulated design allows for precise insertion over a guidewire. The screw is partially threaded with a $16\text{mm}$ thread length, which is ideal for achieving strong interfragmentary compression across a fracture site.
