What is it indicated for?

The PERIMETER® C Spinal System is intended to be used for anterior cervical interbody fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with cervical disc disease at one level from the C2-C3 disc to the C7-TI disc who have had six weeks of non-operative treatment. Cervical disc disease is defined as intractable radiculopathy and/or myelopathy with herniated disc and/or osteophyte formation on posterior vertebral endplates producing symptomatic nerve root and/or spinal cord compression confirmed by radiographic studies. Additionally, the PERIMETER® C Spinal System implants are to be used with autogenous bone graft and supplemental fixation and implanted via an open, anterior approach.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
