Read the full statement (169 words)
The SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumber Interbody Fusion Devices are indicated for interbody fusion
in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1.
DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin 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). These patients should be skeletally mature and have completed
six months of non-operative treatment. Supplemental fixation is required with SpineEX Sagittae®
Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Devices. Additionally, the SpineEX devices are intended to be
used with autogenous and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous
bone graft to facilitate fusion. These devices are intended to be used with supplemental fixation
systems that have been cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine (e.g. posterior pedicle screw and rod
systems, anterior plate systems, and anterior screw and rod systems). Hyperlordotic interbody
devices (>20° lordosis) must be used with at least anterior supplemental fixation.
Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
