A bone screw (1) having a threaded proximal portion (2), a threaded median
portion (3), and a threaded distal portion (4). Threaded proximal portion
(2) has a core (11) with a constant diameter and a proximal thread (12)
with a constant diameter and a proximal pitch (P2). The threaded median
portion (3) has a core (15), which is conical, with a diameter becoming
increasingly larger from the distal end of the threaded median portion
(3) to the proximal end thereof, and thread (16), which has a constant
diameter smaller than the diameter of the thread (12) of the proximal
threaded portion (2). The pitch of thread (16) of the threaded median
portion (3) becomes increasingly smaller from the distal end of the
threaded median portion (3) towards its proximal end. At the proximal end
of the threaded median portion (3), the pitch of thread (16) is larger
than the pitch (P2) of the thread (12) of the threaded proximal portion
(2). The threaded distal portion (4) has a core (17) and thread (18),
both having a constant diameter, and with thread (18) having a diameter
that is smaller than the diameter of the thread (16). The pitch (P4) of
the thread (18) of the threaded distal portion (4) is larger than the
pitch of thread (16) at the distal end of the threaded median portion
(3).
