What is it indicated for?

The VSP System is indicated for degenerative spondylolisthesis, in skeletally mature N patients, with objective evidence of neurologic impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor, and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). Levels of fixation are for the thoracic, limbar and sacral spine.

The VSP Systern is also indicated for pedicle screw fixation for severe spondylolisthesis (Grades 3 and 4) at LS-31, in skeletally mature patients, when autogenous bone graft is used, when affixed to the posterior lumbosacral spine, and intended to be removed after solid fusion is attained. Levels of fixation are from L3-S1.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
