Read the full statement (187 words)

The Syzygy Stabilization System is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and/or sacral spine, specifically as follows:

• When intended for pedicle screw fixation of the non-cervical posterior spine in skeletally mature patients the Syzygy Stabilization System is indicated for one or more of the following: degenerative disc disease (defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies); spondylolisthesis; fracture; dislocation; scoliosis; kyphosis; spinal tumor; and/or failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis).

• In addition, when used as a pedicle screw fixation system, the Syzygy Stabilization System is indicated for skeletally mature patients having degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment and/or severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) of the fifth lumbar-first sacral (L5-S1) vertebral joint; who are receiving fusions using autogenous bone graft only; who are having the device fixed or attached to the lumbar and sacral spine (L3 and below); and who are having the device removed after the development of a solid fusion mass.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
