Indications for Use
The Atlas Spine Lateral Expandable Interbody System is indicated for spinal fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients at one or two contiquous levels in the thoracolumbar spine. Thoracic: T1-T2 to T11-T12, or at the thoracolumbar junction (T12-L1), following discectory for the treatment of a symptomatic degenerative disc disease (DDD), including thoracic disc herniation (myelopathy and/or radiculopathy with or without axial pain). Lumbar: L1-L2 to L5-S1. for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The Atlas Spine Lateral Expandable Interbody System is intended for use on patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment. It is intended for use with autograft and/or allograft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and supplemental fixation systems that are cleared by FDA for use in the thoracic and lumbar spine. Atlas Spine Lateral Expandable Interbody System spacers expanded greater than 20° must be used with the provided bone screws in addition to supplemental fixation.
Device Story
Lateral expandable interbody system; used in spinal fusion procedures; implanted in thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5/S1). Device provides structural support to disc space; facilitates fusion when used with autograft/allograft bone graft and supplemental fixation. Expandable design allows for adjustment; spacers expanded >20° require integrated bone screws. Used by surgeons in clinical/OR settings. Benefits include restoration of disc height and stabilization of vertebral segments in patients with degenerative disc disease.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence established via bench testing.
Technological Characteristics
Expandable interbody fusion spacer; metallic construction; includes integrated bone screws for specific expansion angles (>20°). Designed for use with supplemental fixation systems. Mechanical device; no software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients requiring spinal fusion at 1-2 contiguous levels in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-T2 to L5-S1). Treats symptomatic degenerative disc disease (DDD), including thoracic disc herniation, and lumbar DDD with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis. Requires 6 months of failed non-operative treatment.
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.
