It consists of various vertebral plates that are punched into each of a series of vertebral bodies. An eye-type screw is inserted in a hole in the center of each of the plates. A braided cable is threaded through each eye-type screw. The cable is tightened with a tension device and it is fastened or crimped at each eye-type screw. The device is used to apply force to a series of vertebrae to correct “sway back,” scoliosis (lateral curvature of the spine), or other conditions. ## Predicate Devices - Atlas Spine HR S E Expandable Cervical Corpectomy System ([K252560](/device/K252560.md)) - HiJAK™ Expandable Cervical Interbody System ([K180675](/device/K180675.md)) - Atlas Spine Expandable Cervical Standalone Interbody System ([K192570](/device/K192570.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
