Shark Screw® Allograft
Game-Changer made out of allogeneic bone
Enhancing Bone Fusion With 100% Human Cortical Bone
Shark Screw® is a screw made from human donor bone and can be used in orthopedics and trauma surgery. After insertion into the bone, Shark Screw® is colonized by the patient’s own cells and integrated into the natural bone metabolism. Shark Screw® gets remodeled into patient’s own bone within months due to the natural creeping substitution process. Possible complications, caused by metal and other foreign materials in the body, such as irritation of nerves, ligaments and tendons, are therefore eliminated. The avoidance of these risks, sick leave and time expenditure leads to enormous savings for the patients, surgery centers, hospitals, and the healthcare system.
