Your ultimate guide to Master All Types of Screws in Orthopedics: FRCS Exam Guide starts here. Common types of screws in orthopedics include cortical, cancellous, fully/partially threaded, locking, non-locking, cannulated, and Poller screws. Design features differentiate these types of screws, focusing on thread pitch, tip design, and core to outer diameter ratio. Cortical screws are ideal for dense bone, while cancellous screws suit less dense bone. Locking and cannulated screws offer specific stability and guidance functions.
