## Indications for use
The eCarbon-C is intended for anterior intervertebral body fusion in skeletally mature patients who have had at least six weeks of non-operative treatment. The eCarbon-C is indicated to treat cervical disc degeneration and/or cervical spinal instability, as confirmed by imaging studies (radiographs, CT, MRI), that results in radiculopathy, myelopathy, and/or pain at one level or two contiguous levels from C2 - T1. The eCarbon-C is to be used with supplemental fixation. The implants are designed for use with autogenous and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone to facilitate fusion. The eCarbon-P is intended for spinal fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies) at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2-S1. These patients should have had six months of nonoperative treatment. These patients may have had a previous non-fusion spinal surgery and/or may have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved spinal level(s). Additionally, the eCarbon-P can be used as an adjunct to fusion in patients diagnosed with degenerative scoliosis. The eCarbon-P is to be used with autograft and/or allograft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and with supplemental fixation indicated for lumbar spinal fusion procedures.
