Read the full statement (116 words)

The Gemini-C Hybrid Cervical Interbody System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels within the cervical spine at disc levels from C2 to T1. Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. This device is intended for use with autogenous bone graft and/or allograft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and supplemental fixation (i.e. anterior cervical plate such as the White Pearl Preferred Angle Anterior Cervical Plate). Patients should have had at least six weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with intervertebral cages.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
