## Indications for use
The Streamline TL Spinal System components are non-cervical spinal fixation devices intended as an adjunct to fusion for use as a pedicle screw (T1-S2), sacral/iliac screw fixation or as an anterolateral fixation system (T8 - L5). Pedicle screw fixation is limited to skeletally mature patients. These devices are indicated for all of the following indications: degenerative disc disease (defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies), spondylolisthesis, trauma, (i.e., fracture or dislocation), deformities or curvatures (i.e., scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis, Scheuermann's Disease), tumor, stenosis, pseudoarthrosis, and failed previous fusion.
