## Indications for use
The DORADOTM Intervertebral Body Cage is a spinal intervertebral body cage intended for a posterior approach and uses autogenous bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two spinal levels from L2-S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolithesis at the involved level(s). The SpineFrontier DORADOTM Intervertebral Body Cage is intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation system(s) (Example: Posterior Pedicle Screw). Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history or radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of non-operative treatment.
