## Indications for use
CAPRI Corpectomy Cages are vertebral body replacement devices intended for use in the cervical and thoracolumbar spine. When used in the cervical spine (C2-T1), CAPRI Static and Expandable cages are intended for use in skeletally mature patients to replace a diseased or damaged vertebral body caused by tumor, fracture, or osteomyelitis, or for reconstruction following corpectomy performed to achieve decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues in cervical degenerative disorders. These cages are intended to restore integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time period in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the cervical spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion, with bone graft used at the surgeon's discretion. When used in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5), CAPRI Static and Expandable cages are intended for use to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor and trauma (i.e. fracture). These are designed to provide anterior spinal column support even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period. The interior of the cages can be packed with autograft or allogenic bone graft comprising cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft as an adjunct to fusion. When used in the thoracolumbar spine, the CAPRI Static and Expandable Corpectomy cages are intended to be used with supplemental internal fixation appropriate for the implanted level, including K2M Pedicle Screw and Hook Systems, and K2M Spinal Plate Systems. When used in the cervical spine at one or two levels, the CAPRI Static and Expandable cages are intended to be used with supplemental fixation cleared by the FDA for use in the cervical spine. When used at more than two levels, supplemental fixation should include posterior fixation which is cleared by the FDA.
