Compatibility with Existing Nails

This system is compatible with all DPS cannulated titanium nails and allows for the use of both standard and ASLS screws in the same nail.

Resorbable Sleeve

The system includes sleeves in sizes 4 mm, 5 mm, and 6mm to be used with corresponding ASLS screws. These sleeves are made of 70:30 poly (L/DL-lactide) which allows them to gradually resorb.

Reduced Interfragmentary Movement

Compared to conventional locking, ASLS had reduced interfragmentary movement with up to 80% decrease in fracture site motion over a period of approximately 3 months.4-6
