## Indications for use
The ENDOSKELETON® TL Interbody Fusion Device is indicated for use in spinal fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. Patients should have received 6 months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the devices. The device must be used with supplemental fixation that has been cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Patients with previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the involved level(s) may be treated with the device. It is indicated to be used with autograft bone and/or allograft bone comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone and/or demineralized allograft bone with bone marrow aspirate. The ENDOSKELETON® TL Hyperlordotic Interbody Fusion Device (≥ 16˚) is indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Patients should have received 6 months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the ENDOSKELETON® TL Hyperlordotic Interbody Fusion Device. Patients with previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the involved level(s) may be treated with the device. The Interbody Device is indicated to be used with autograft bone, allograft bone comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone, demineralized allograft bone marrow aspirate, or a combination thereof. The ENDOSKELETON® TL Hyperlordotic Interbody Fusion Device must be used with an integrated Lateral Plate and Bone Screw and additionally must be used with posterior supplemental internal spinal fixation that has been cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine.
