The Spinal Simplicity Posterior Fusion Plate is a posterior, non-pedicle supplemental fixation device, intended for use at a single level in the non-cervical spine (T1-S1). It is intended for plate fixation/attachment to spinous processes for the purpose of achieving supplemental fusion in the following conditions:

• degenerative disc disease (DDD) (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies);

• spondylolisthesis;

• trauma (i.e., fracture or dislocation); and/or

• tumor.

The Posterior Fusion Plate is intended for use with bone graft material and is not intended for standalone use. The device may be implanted via a minimally invasive posterior approach (T1-S1) or a minimally invasive lateral approach (L1-S1).

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
