Background:4.0mm cannulated screws provide inter-fragmentary compression and stability to fractures.A guide wire is used to define the screw trajectory and hold the fracture fragment while the screw is being inserted.The cannulated shaft typically accommodates a 1.25 mm guide pin.Since the guide pin is very slender and undergoes elastic deformation during insertion,there is a high probability of pin breakage.
