A new Inion video is now available demonstrating the use of Inion CPS™ screws for mandibular bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) fixation.
The video presents a screw-cutting technique using the Inion CPS™ 2.8 × 18 mm screw, showing how the screw can be adjusted to the desired length according to the fixation depth.
Key benefits of the use of Inion CPS™ screws for BSSO:
- One screw size for different fixation depths
- Easy cutting to the desired length
- Screw readily loaded into the screwdriver
- Reduced inventory
- Efficient and fast procedure
About the Inion CPS™ System
The Inion CPS™ Bioabsorbable Fixation System is designed for craniomaxillofacial surgery and includes a selection of bioabsorbable plates, meshes and screws in different shapes and sizes.
The system is designed to provide fixation while the implants gradually resorb over time. Inion CPS™ implants are made from bioabsorbable copolymers and are available in 1.5 mm, 2.0 mm and 2.5 mm systems. The system is intended for a range of CMF applications, including fractures and osteotomies of the mandible, as well as orthognathic and reconstructive procedures.
Screw cutting for BSSO fixation
The screw-cutting technique provides a practical approach to screw length selection. Using one screw size, the screw can be cut to the required length based on the measured fixation depth and then prepared for insertion.
This can help simplify screw selection and reduce the number of screw lengths that need to be kept in inventory, while allowing the screw to be prepared and loaded directly into the screwdriver.
