Indications for Use
When used as an intervertebral fusion device, the Pantheon IBFD devices are intended for use as either one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine from L2 to S1, for the treatment of treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The lumbar device is to be used in patients who are skeletally mature and have had six months of non-operative treatment. Patients with previous non-fusion spinal surgery at involved level may be treated with the devices are intended for use with supplemental fixation cleared for use in the lumbar spine and with autograft to facilitate fusion.
Device Story
Pantheon IBFD is an intervertebral body fusion device used in lumbar spinal fusion surgery. The device is oval-shaped with internal openings for bone graft and pyramidal teeth on inferior surfaces for fixation. Tantalum markers allow radiographic visualization of implant position; an articulating hub facilitates adjustable angulation during insertion. Surgeons implant the device into the disc space to promote fusion. The device is used in clinical settings by orthopedic or neurosurgeons. It acts as a structural spacer to restore disc height and stabilize the spinal segment while autograft facilitates biological fusion. The system includes various sizes, including 20-degree hyperlordotic options, to accommodate patient anatomy. Benefits include stabilization of the spinal segment and potential relief of discogenic back pain.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing, including ASTM F2077 static and dynamic compression tests, and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to validate the new hyperlordotic size configurations.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: PEEK (ASTM F2026) and Ti6Al4V titanium alloy with tantalum markers (ASTM F136). Design: Oval shape, pyramidal teeth, articulating hub for inserter shaft. Connectivity: None. Energy: None. Sterilization: Not specified.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) and up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at one or two contiguous lumbar levels (L2-S1). Requires six months of failed non-operative treatment. Suitable for patients with prior non-fusion spinal surgery at the target level. Must be used with supplemental fixation and autograft.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.
Special Controls
*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval. (c) *Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required.* Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
