## Indications for use
The Renovis S180 Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Patients should be skeletally mature and have at least six months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the devices. The Renovis S180 System must be used with supplemental fixation cleared by FDA for use in the lumbar spine. Renovis S180 System implants are to be used with autogenous bone graft.
