When used as a pedicle screw fixation system (MNH) The Contour™ Spinal System is indicated for the treatment of severe spondylolisthesis (Grades 3 and 4) at the L5-S1 vertebral joint in skeletally mature patients receiving fusion by autogenous bone graft having implants attached to the lumbar and sacral spine (L3 to sacrum) with removal of the implants after the attainment of a solid fusion mass.
Use of a hook, rod, and ileo-sacral screw fixation system (KWP) T1-S1, the Lumbar Hopk Sacral Screw Construct of the Contour™ Spinal System, will assist in arthrodesis or fusion of the thoracic, lumbar and lumbosacral spine. The indications for use are:
Spondylolisthesis;
Fracture;
Spinal Stenosis;
Deformities (scoliosis, kyphosis, lordosis);
Pseudarthrosis
Tumor
Revision of previously failed fusion surgery
The hooks are to be used for fixation to include the first thoracic vertebra down to the sacrum. The pedicle screws are used for sacral fixation only.
Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA 510(k) statement, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
