Embodiment Construction
[0019] The present invention relates to an optimized bone screw 1 made of allograft bone, such as figure 1 Schematically shown in , with respect to its properties in the context of osteosynthesis, in particular with regard to its breaking strength.
[0020] For this purpose, bone screws are provided with symmetrical angular or trapezoidal threads, so as not to exert any stress on the bone parts to be connected. Furthermore, since the strength of the bony connection essentially depends on the cortex of the recipient bone3 (see figure 2 ), and the contribution of the threaded connection along the cancellous bone 4 is small, the bone screws are shaped in such a way that they have as many thread turns per millimeter along the entire bolt shaft as possible in order to ensure The cortical bone 3 is connected with a correspondingly high number of thread turns. For this purpose, in case the ratio between thread depth and thread diameter is between 0.10 and 0.15, the product of this r...
