ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw

The ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw is built for posterior thoracolumbar stabilization and controlled vertebral reduction. Its fixed (monoaxial) screw head maintains alignment rigidity. Unique reduction tabs provide surgeons with a controlled mechanism to guide rods into the construct gradually. Dual-lead thread geometry ensures efficient insertion and superior primary bone fixation. The tapered screw tip facilitates accurate pedicle access and bicortical anchorage.

Product Description

ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw Overview


ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw Features and Benefits

StarDrive recess enables secure and consistent torque during set-screw locking.

Integrated reduction tabs with side notches simplify rod seating and offer clean break-off once locked.

Dual-lead threading enhances bone engagement and reduces insertion torque while speeding up implantation.

Tapered screw tip supports smooth pedicle entry and reliable bicortical fixation.

Fixed monoaxial head provides rigid rotational control, crucial during derotation in deformity cases.

Color-coded diameters and lengths streamline intraoperative instrument matching and reduce selection errors.

Low-profile head design minimizes soft tissue irritation and supports minimally invasive procedures.


ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw Indications

Designed for adult thoracolumbar fixation scenarios, including:

Traumatic vertebral fractures needing rigid stabilization

Correction of spinal deformities (e.g., scoliosis, kyphosis), particularly where rotational control is essential

Degenerative spine pathologies requiring fusion

Tumor resection combined with spinal stabilization

Revision surgeries where secure fixed-angle constructs are necessary

ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw Insights


What is a Monoaxial Reduction Pedicle Screw?

A monoaxial reduction pedicle screw features a rigid, fixed head combined with integrated reduction tabs. The head ensures constant alignment with the connecting rod, resisting rotational forces, while the tabs allow stepwise rod seating and controlled vertebral reduction. This dual design optimizes precision during corrective spinal surgeries.


Applications of ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw

The ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw is indicated for use in:

Traumatic thoracolumbar fractures requiring firm fixation and vertebral alignment

Derotation and correction of deformities such as idiopathic scoliosis and kyphosis

Degenerative disease fusions requiring stable rotational support

Stabilization following spinal tumor resections

Revision surgeries where prior instrumentation has failed or alignment needs correction


Advantages of ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw

Rotation control: The fixed head prevents rotational slippage during correction

Reduction aid: Tabs guide rod seating with minimal force, decreasing soft tissue strain

Efficient insertion: Dual lead threads boost insertion speed and pull-out resistance

Tissue-friendly design: Low-profile head and detachable tabs minimize prominence and irritation

Versatile rod compatibility: Works with standard 5.5 mm titanium or cobalt chrome rods

Operational ease: Color-coded screw sizes and StarDrive interface reduce OR time


Biomechanics of ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw

Monoaxial design creates a stiff, fixed-angle construct, limiting micro-motion and enhancing fusion

Dual-lead threads increase bone contact surface and torque stability, improving primary fixation

Reduction tabs distribute load gradually during rod seating, reducing stress on screw–bone interface

Tapered tip ensures bicortical anchorage and accurate pedicle alignment, critical in osteoporotic bone

Collectively, these features support early postoperative stability and optimal healing outcomes.


Surgical Technique of ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw

Preoperative planning: Use imaging to determine appropriate screw size and trajectory

Screw insertion: Place screws using freehand, fluoroscopic, or navigation-assisted technique

Rod engagement: Use reduction tabs to gradually feed and align rods into the screws

Set-screw locking: Tighten up to torque using StarDrive recess for stable set-screw engagement

Tab removal: Break off tabs cleanly to maintain low-profile construct

Final imaging: Confirm alignment and construct stability with fluoroscopy or x-ray before closing


Postoperative Care of ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw

Following implantation, proper postoperative care is essential to ensure healing and prevent complications:

Activity limitation: Avoid rotational movements and heavy lifting during early recovery (6–8 weeks)

Imaging follow-up: Regular radiographs to monitor vertebral alignment and fusion

Pain protocols: Follow prescribed analgesic regimen and anti-inflammatory plans

Physical rehabilitation: Begin supervised physical therapy focusing on trunk strength and mobility

Complication monitoring: Observe surgical site for infection, hardware irritation, or abnormal neurologic symptoms


Conclusion

The ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw offers the surgical precision of rod reduction technology combined with the biomechanical strength of fixed-angle fixation. It is especially effective in correcting spinal deformities, stabilizing trauma cases, and enabling secure revision constructs while maintaining compliance with CE & ISO quality standards.


FAQs of ATLAS 5.5 Reduction Monoaxial Pedicle Screw


How does the reduction tab feature aid surgical control?

Integrated reduction tabs guide the rod into seat gradually, allowing precise vertebral repositioning while minimizing manual manipulation and soft tissue stress.


What is the ideal use scenario for monoaxial head design?

When rotational control is critical—such as in scoliosis or kyphosis correction, trauma stabilization, or revision surgeries—monoaxial screws deliver the strongest alignment precision.


Does the dual-lead thread reduce insertion torque?

Yes—dual-lead threads spread load over more surface area, speeding insertion and offering higher pull-out resistance, particularly beneficial in compromised bone.


How does the head profile support minimally invasive techniques?

The low-profile head and detachable tab ensure implant alignment with minimal soft tissue impact, making it compatible with MIS approaches.


How are screw sizes selected intraoperatively?

Color-coded markings directly correspond to diameter and length, enabling fast, error-free selection under sterile conditions.
