## Indications for use
When used as a vertebral body replacement, the X-spine Calix System is intended for use in the thoracic and/or thoracolumbar spine (TI-LS) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body resected or excised (i.e. partial or total vertebrectomy procedures) due to tumor or trauma (i.e. fracture). The Calix device, when used as a vertebral body replacement, can be packed with either allograft or autograft. When used as an intervertebral body fusion device, the X-spine Calix System is intended for spinal fusion procedures at one level (C3-C7) in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies) of the cervical spine. Implants are to be implanted via an open, anterior approach and packed with autogenous bone. Patients should receive 6 weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the Calix intervertebral body fusion device. For all indications, this device is intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the cervical, thoracic or lumbar spine (i.e., posterior pedicle screw and rod systems, anterior plate systems, and anterior screw and rod systems).
