## Indications for use
The Implanet Calypso System is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion of the thoracic, lumbar and/or sacral spine. The Implanet Calypso System is intended for posterior, non-cervical pedicle and non-pedlicle fixation for the following indications: degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies), spondylolisthesis, trauma (i.e., fracture or dislocation), spinal stenosis, spinal deformities (i.e., scoliosis, kyphosis and/or lordosis), tumor, pseudoarthrosis, or revision of a failed fusion attempt.
