From an article in European Spanish on ribcage osteosynthesis.
Con el diagnóstico de tóraxinestable es llevado a salas de cirugía para la realización de una osteosíntesis de los arcos costales comprometidos con el sistema XXXX con placas premoldeadas de 10 orificios y tornillos bloqueados bicorticales, con la utilización de sello de agua en el postoperatorio, sin complicaciones en e lpostoperatorio.
I have found mention of "self-tapping" bicortical screws, which I think fits, but if anyone can confirm, that would be great.
TIA

: You're on the right track; but I think "bicortical locking screw" is the more common construction.
