System basics
- The PROstep MICA Screw System offers the simplicity of self-tapping cannulated compression screws in 3mm and 4mm diameters.
- All PROstep MICA Screws are manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti 6Al-4V) to provide consistent strength.
- Screws are color-coded by diameter to easily identify associated instrumentation.
- Pilot drills, countersinks, and drivers have corresponding color-coded banding to match screw diameter, simplifying the pairing of instrumentation with screw selection.
- Cannulated drill bits are included for use in hard cortical bone, when an oblique approach is desired, or when bicortical fixation is required.
- Cannulated countersinks are provided to recess screw heads into the cortex of the bone.
The PROstep MICA Screw is indicated for fixation of bone fractures or for bone reconstruction. Examples include:
- Mono or bi-cortical osteotomies in the foot
- Distal or proximal metatarsal osteotomies
- Weil osteotomy
- Fusion of the first metatarsophalangeal joint and interphalangeal joint
- Fixation of osteotomies for hallux valgus treatment (such as scarf, chevron, etc.)
- Akin-type osteotomy
- Arthrodesis base first metatarsal cuneiform joint to reposition and stabilize metatarsus varus primus
- Calcaneus/cuboid arthrodesis
- Talar/navicular arthrodesis
General surgical contraindications:
- Infection
- Physiologically or psychologically inadequate patient
- Irreparable tendon system
- Possibility for conservative treatment
- Growing patients with open epiphyses
- Patients with high levels of activity
