What is it indicated for?
BEE HA Cages are intended for intervertebral body fusion devices in skeletally mature patients for the treatment of 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 or more contiguous levels from C2-T1. These patients should have had at least six weeks of nonoperative treatment. BEE HA Cages are to be used with autogenous and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion and in combination with supplemental fixation indicated for cervical fusion procedures.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
