When intended to promote fusion of the cervical spine and thoracic spine (C1 -T3) and occipito-cervico-thoracic junction (occiput-T3) and are intended for the following: * DDD (neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc as confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies * Spondylolisthesis * Spinal Stenosis * Fracture/dislocation * Failed previous fusion * Atlanto/axial fracture with instability * Occipitocervical dislocation * Revision of previous cervical spine surgery * Tumors The occipital bone screws are limited to occipital fixation only. The hooks and rods are also intended to provide stabilization to promote fusion following reduction of fracture/dislocation or trauma in the cervical/upper thoracic (C1 -T3) spine.
