When used as a pedicle screw fixation system in the non-cervical spine of skeletally mature patients (MNI), The AMT SpinalTMSystem is intended for immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine (1) severe degenerative spondylolithesis with objective evidence of neurological impairment, (2) fracture, (3) dislocation, (4) scoliosis, (5) kyphosis, (6) spinal tumor, and (7) failed previous fusion (pseudoarthrosis).
The AMT SpinalTMSystem is intended for skeletally mature patients (MNH): (1) having severe spondylolithesis (Grades 3 and 4) at the L5S1 vertebral joint; (2) who are receiving fusion by autogenous bone graft only; (3) who are having the device fixed or attached to the lumbar and sacral spine (L3 and below); and (4) who are having the device removed after the development of a solid fusion mass.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
