## Indications for use
When intended for pedicle screw fixation from L1-S1, the indications include immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the lumbar and sacral spine: degenerative disc disease (defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies), degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment, fracture, dislocation, deformities or curvatures (i.e. Scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis), tumor, and failed previous fusion. As a pedicle screw system placed between L3 and S1, the indications include Grade 3 or Grade 4 spondylolisthesis, when utilizing autologous bone graft, when affixed to the posterior lumbosacral spine, and intended to be removed after solid fusion is established. After solid fusion occurs, these devices serve no functional purpose and should be removed. In most cases, removal is indicated because the implants are not intended to transfer or support forces developed during normal activities. Any decision to remove the device must be made by the physician and the patient, taking into consideration the patient's general medical condition and the potential risk to the patient of a second surgical procedure.
