## Indications for use
The MSD CABLE REDUCTION SYSTEM screws and hooks are only intended for use in the thoracic and lumbar spine. The system provides an alternative to sublaminar and intraspinous process wiring for trauma applications. Another application is the use of the MSD CABLE REDUCTION SYSTEM for instrumentation involved in the correction of scoliotic, kyphotic, and lordotic deformities. The system may also be used with other spinal implants such as the MSD Unit Rod, the ATLASTMCABLE System or the Luque Rod, or wherever “wiring” may help secure the attachment of other implants.
