## Indications for use
The F3D™ Lateral 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 L.2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Foundation™ implants are to be used with autogenous bone graft and supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non- operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage.
