An osteosynthesis screw ( ) used especially for application by a translaminar vertebral screw, comprises a shaft ( ) at least partially provided with a thread ( ) and a head ( ) formed at one of its ends and having a notch ( ) for a tool. Said shaft ( ) has a section (A) with a thread ( ) on the end section oriented towards the head ( ). The remaining section (B) of the shaft ( ) up to the free end is produced without a thread. The head ( ) has a diameter (D ) corresponding at least approximately to the outer diameter (DA) of the thread ( ) and is provided with the inner notch ( ) for a tool. The section (A) of the shaft ( ) with the thread ( ) has a configuration of uniform thickness, e.g. a trilobular configuration. Thus, the invention provides an osteosynthesis screw ( ) exhibiting a short section (A) with a thread ( ) and a long section (B) without a thread, said screw having a pull-out head ( ) which is secured both axially and rotationally.

Osteosynthesis screw, especially for application by a translaminar vertebral screw

The present invention relates to a medicinal product with a textile component such as a wound compress having a surface containing a multiplicity of openings arranged in at least two hole patterns. The diameter of one opening of one hole pattern deviates from the diameter of an opening of another hole pattern by about at least a factor of 5. Better wound healing is achieved by adapting the structural and mechanical characteristics of the medicinal product to the characteristics of the target tissue.
