a ~ c A distal interphalangeal arthrodesis specimen with axial headless compression screw (AHCS) and a posteroanterior radiograph of the AHCS specimen. A headless compression screw of 28 mm length was intramedullary inserted; d ~ f A distal interphalangeal arthrodesis specimen with nonaxial multiple small screws (NMSS) and a posteroanterior radiograph of NMSS specimen show one screw (1.5 mm cortical) inserted unicortically and two screws were inserted bicortically
