The Reduction Screw XL Single Lock is a specialized orthopedic screw used in spinal fixation systems that includes a built-in reduction mechanism. This mechanism is crucial for applying controlled force to pull a displaced vertebra back towards the spinal rod, facilitating the reduction and stabilization of severe spinal deformities or fractures. It is an “XL” design, indicating suitability for robust fixation, and features a single-lock mechanism to firmly secure the rod once reduction is achieved.

Key features include:

• Reduction Capability: The screw head is designed to actively pull the vertebral body towards the rod, simplifying complex spinal realignment procedures.

• Single Lock: Provides secure final locking of the rod into the screw head after reduction.

• XL Size: Indicates robust design for high-load areas in the spine.

• Primary Use: Essential for surgeons performing deformity correction (e.g., severe scoliosis or kyphosis) or high-grade spondylolisthesis reduction.

• Code Structure: Sizes are available in 4.5mm, 5.5mm, and 6.5mm diameters.
