## Indications for use
The Lateral Spine Truss System (LSTS) Interbody Fusion Device 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. Patients should have received 6 months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the devices. All LSTS Interbody Fusion Devices must be used with supplemental fixation and must be used with autograft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft. Interbodies with 18° lordosis or greater must be used with the 4WEB Lumbar Spine Truss System Plating Solution (LSTS-PS) with integrated fixation. If using the 1-hole 4WEB LSTS-PS with integrated fixation, additional supplemental fixation is required (e.g. posterior fixation). These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s).
