## Indications for use
The F3D-C2 Cervical Stand-Alone System is a Stand-Alone anterior cervical interbody fusion system indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms at one or two contiguous disc levels depending on the assembly. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. The F3D-C2 Cervical Stand-Alone System is used to facilitate intervertebral body fusion in the cervical spine and is placed via an anterior approach at one- or two-disc levels (C2-T1) depending on the assembly. The interior of the spacers can be packed with autograft or allogenic bone graft comprising cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and/or demineralized allograft bone with bone marrow aspirate as an adjunct to fusion. Patients should have at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment. The F3D-C2 Cervical Stand-Alone System is an interbody fusion device intended to be used with two titanium alloy screws and/or anchors which accompany the implants. When used with screws, the F3D-C2 Cervical Stand-Alone System is intended for use at one or two levels of the cervical spine (C2-T1) and requires no additional fixation. When used with one or more anchors, the F3D-C2 Cervical Stand-Alone System is intended for use at one level of the cervical spine (C2-T1) and requires additional supplemental fixation such as posterior cervical screw fixation. The F3D Corpectomy devices are vertebral body replacement devices intended for use in the cervical (C2-T1) and thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5). When used in the cervical spine (C2-T1), F3D Corpectomy devices 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 spacers are intended to restore the 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), F3D Corpectomy devices are intended for use to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor or trauma (i.e., fracture). These spacers are designed to provide anterior spinal column support even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period. The interior of the spacers can be packed with autograft or allogenic bone graft comprising cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and/or demineralized allograft bone with bone marrow aspirate as an adjunct to fusion. These devices are intended to be used with FDA-cleared supplemental spinal fixation systems that have been labeled for use in the cervical, thoracic, and/or lumbar spine (i.e., posterior screw and rod systems, anterior plate systems, and anterior screw and rod systems). When used at more than two levels, supplemental fixation should include posterior fixation. The F3D Cervical Stand-Alone System is a stand-alone anterior cervical interbody fusion system indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms at one or two contiguous disc levels. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. The F3D Cervical Stand-Alone System is used to facilitate intervertebral body fusion in the cervical spine and is placed via an anterior approach at one- or two-disc levels (C2-T1) using autograft bone. Patients should have at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the devices. The F3D Cervical Stand-Alone Interbody Fusion System is intended to be used with the bone screw fixation provided and requires no additional fixation. The F3D™ Lateral System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Foundation implants are to be used with autogenous bone graft and supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage. The CoreLink® M3™ Stand-Alone ALIF System is a standalone interbody fusion system 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. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). The device may be used with supplemental fixation. Hyperlordotic implants (>20° lordosis) are intended for use with supplemental fixation (e.g. posterior fixation) that are cleared for use in the lumbar spine. The system is indicated to be used with autograft bone. Patients should have received 6 months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the devices. The implants are intended to be used with the bone screws and lock provided. The system is designed to be a 3-screw implant, and all three (3) screws must be used. The accompanying lock must be used anytime the device is used with any number of screws. If the physician chooses to use less than the recommended number, or none of the provided screws, then the additional supplemental fixation in the lumbar spine must be used to augment fixation. Foundation 3D cervical implants are indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms at one disc level. DDD is defined as disco genic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. Foundation cervical implants are used to facilitate intervertebral body fusion in the cervical spine and are placed via an anterior approach at one disc level (C2-T1) using autograft bone. Foundation 3D Interbody implants are to be used with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage. Foundation 3D lumbar implants are indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Foundation implants are to be used with autogenous bone graft and supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of nonoperative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage. The Foundation™ 3D Interbody Cervical Cage is indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms at one disc level. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. Foundation™ Cervical implants are used to facilitate intervertebral body fusion in the cervical spine and are placed via an anterior approach at one disc level (C2-T1) using autograft bone. Foundation™ 3D Interbody implants are to be used with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage. The Foundation™ 3D Interbody Lumbar Cage is indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Foundation™ implants are to be used with autogenous bone graft and supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage.
