When used as a cervical intervertebral fusion device, the Coveris devices are indicated for use at one or two contiguous levels in the cervical spine, from C2-T1, in skeletally mature patients who have had six weeks of non-operative treatment for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The device is intended for use with autogenous bone graft or allogenic bone graft composed of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and with supplemental fixation (such as anterior cervical plating systems, or posterior systems) systems cleared for use in the cervical spine.
