The Stryker Spine Aero™-LL is an intervertebral body fusion device indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in
patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one level or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1.
DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic
studies. The DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients should be
skeletally mature and have six months of nonoperative therapy.
The Aero™-LL Lumbar Cage System is to be implanted via a lateral approach.
The Aero™-LL Lumbar Cage System is intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems that have been
cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine (e.g., posterior pedicle screw and rod systems). In addition, the device may be
used with or without the included fixation anchors.
