## Indications for use
The Curiteva Thoracolumbar Plate System Two Hole and Four Hole Plates are intended for use via a lateral or anterolateral surgical approach above the bifurcation of the great vessels in the treatment of thoracic and thoracolumbar (T1-L5) spine instability, or via the anterior surgical approach below the bifurcation of the great vessels in the treatment of lumbar and lumbosacral (L1-S1) spine instability in skeletally mature patients as a result of fracture (including dislocation and subluxation), tumor, degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies), scoliosis, kyphosis, lordosis, spinal stenosis, or a failed previous spine surgery. The device is intended as a temporary fixation device until fusion is achieved. The Curiteva Thoracolumbar Plate System Buttress Plate is intended to stabilize the allograft or autograft at one level (T1-S1) as an aid to spinal fusion and to provide temporary stabilization and augment development of a solid spinal fusion. It may be used alone or with other anterior, anterolateral, or posterior spinal systems made of compatible materials. This device is not intended for load bearing applications.
