## Indications for use
The NuVasive® 3DP Interfixated ALIF System is indicated for spinal fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients. The 3DP Interfixated ALIF System 10°-20° lordotic cages may be used as a standalone system. The 3DP Interfixated ALIF System 25°-30° lordotic cages must be used with supplemental internal spinal fixation systems (e.g., posterior pedicle screw and rod system) that are cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine. The System is designed for use with autogenous and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion. The devices are to be used in patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment. The NuVasive 3DP Interfixated ALIF System is intended for use in interbody fusions in the lumbar spine from L2 to S1, following discectomy in the treatment of symptomatic degenerative disc disease (DDD) or degenerative spondylolisthesis at one or two adjacent levels. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The 3DP Interfixated ALIF System implants can also be used as an adjunct to fusion in patients diagnosed with multilevel degenerative scoliosis; however, when used in these patients at multiple levels and for patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis, the 3DP Interfixated ALIF System must be used with a supplemental internal spinal fixation system (e.g., pedicle screw system) cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine in addition to the integrated screws.
