## Indications for use
The IbexTM Spinal System is indicated for vertebral body replacement and intervertebral fusion. When used for vertebral body replacement, the IbexTM Spinal System is indicated for use in the thoracolumbar spine (i.e., Ti- L5) for partial replacement of a diseased vertebral body resected or excised for the treatment of tumors in order to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The lbexTM Spinal System is also indicated for treating fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine. The JbexTM Spinal System is designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle, and posterior spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period of time. As an intervertebral body fusion device, the IbexTM Spinal System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion at one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine from L2 to SI in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of non-operative treatment. The IbexTM Spinal System is designed for use with autograft to facilitate fusion and is intended for use with supplemental fixation systems cleared for use in the lumbar spine. The IbexTM Spinal System may also be implanted using the Accuvision System to provide the surgeon with a minimally invasive approach for posterior or posterolateral spinal surgery.
