## Indications for use
The Alamo® C is indicated for anterior cervical interbody fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms at one level from C2-T1. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with the degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should have had six weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage. The device system must be used with supplemental fixation and autograft to facilitate fusion and is to be implanted via an open, anterior approach.
