The essential polyaxial osteosynthesis system for small animals up to 15 kg
The EickLoxx Small Starter Kit is a cost-effective basic set designed for users and distributors with limited budgets. It includes all the absolutely necessary instruments and two screws of each size and diameter for the bone plates.
The bone plates, which can be cut to size according to the findings, are available in three sizes. They are not included in the basic set. The appropriate bone plate size can be added as needed.
Like all EickLoxx Small components, the Starter Kit is based on a polyaxial, angle-stable screw concept that combines the advantage of secure multidirectional locking with the flexibility to insert screws at an angle of up to ± 15°. This allows for optimal screw placement, even in challenging fractures.
By using biocompatible titanium alloys, a reduced periosteal contact area, and a modular system structure, the EickLoxx Small promotes rapid fracture healing, high implant stability, and minimizes bone perfusion disturbances.
The Starter Kit is fully modular and compatible with all components of the EickLoxx Small system. Instruments and implants are manufactured in Germany using high-quality materials.
Features
- Polyaxial, angle-stable system for dogs and cats up to approximately 15 kg (33 lbs)
- Allows multidirectional screw insertion up to ± 15°
- Titanium implants for maximum biocompatibility and reduced artifacts in imaging procedures
- Minimized periosteal contact to preserve bone perfusion
- Reduces the risk of infection and promotes accelerated healing
- Modular design, expandable, and compatible with all EickLoxx Small components
- Instruments made of robust, durable materials
- Ideal as a basic set for beginners, clinics with smaller budgets, or as a mobile kit
Technical Properties
- Titanium alloy for maximum biocompatibility
- Multidirectional locking, bi- and monocortical
- Optimized geometry for high strength
- Bendable in three planes (with appropriate plates)
- Abrasion-free, as no frictional locking occurs
- Compatible with screws Ø 1.7 mm, Ø 2.3 mm, and Ø 2.7 mm
Biological Benefits
- Reduced damage to blood vessels
- Accelerated bone healing
- High resistance to infection thanks to titanium
- Reduced artifact formation during radiographic follow-up examinations
