## Indications for use
The subject components of the Osteonics® Spinal System Variable Offset Connector Assembly are single-use devices which are sold non-sterile, and are intended for use only with other components of the commercially available Osteonics® Spinal System. The components of the Osteonics® Spinal System, including the additional components described herein, are available in either ASTM F-138 Stainless Steel (Type 316 LVM) or ASTM F-136 Ti6Al4V ELI Alloy. Stainless steel components are intended for use only with other stainless steel components; Ti6Al4V ELI alloy components are intended for use only with other Ti6Al4V ELI alloy components. The Osteonics® Spinal System, including the subject additional components, is intended for fixation of the T4-S2 spine. All bone screws are indicated for sacral fixation, or for limited pedicular fixation. When used as a pedicle screw system, the system is intended only for use with autogenous bone graft in order to facilitate fusions of the L5-S1 joint in patients with grade 3 or 4 spondylolisthesis. The screws are not intended for placement in the pedicles above L3, and are intended for removal after development of a solid fusion mass. For non-pedicular use: ° Long and short curve scoliosis, ° Vertebral fracture or dislocation, ® Spondylolisthesis, ® Degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies). For pedicular use: ° When used as a pedicle screw system, the system is intended for patients: (a) having severe spondylolisthesis (Grades 3 and 4) at the L5-S1 joint; (b) who are receiving fusions using autogenous bone graft only; (c) who are having the device fixed or attached to the lumbar and sacral spine; and (d) who are having the device removed after the development of a solid fusion mass. Pedicle screws are not intended for placement in pedicles above L3.
