Intended Use

The VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System is a vertebral body replacement device intended for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor or trauma (i.e., fracture). The VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System is to be used with supplemental fixation. Specifically, the VERTE-STACK™ device is to be used with the Medtronic Sofamor Danek ZPLATE II Anterior Fixation System, the DYNALOK™ CLASSIC Spinal System, the VANTAGE™ Anterior Fixation System, the TSRH® Spinal System, the CD HORIZON® Spinal System, the GDLH® Spinal System and/or their successors. Additionally, the VERTE-STACK™ device is intended to be used with bone graft.

Device Story

VERTE-STACK™ is a stackable spinal spacer system for vertebral body replacement in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5). Components are inserted between vertebral bodies following a corpectomy to provide structural support. The device is not a stand-alone system; it requires supplemental anterior or posterior spinal instrumentation and bone graft to achieve stabilization. Surgeons select stackable components of varying sizes and heights to match individual patient anatomy and pathology. The system aids in surgical correction and stabilization of the spine in patients with collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebrae due to tumor or trauma.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Stackable spacer system; materials: PEEK OPTIMA LT or titanium alloy with tantalum markers; dimensions vary by patient anatomy; requires supplemental fixation (stainless steel or titanium, with compatibility restrictions for titanium constructs); non-active, mechanical implant.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients with collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral bodies in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) resulting from tumor or trauma (fracture). Must be used with supplemental fixation and bone graft.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of titanium. 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.

{0}------------------------------------------------ K040536 # VERTE-STACKTM Spinal System 510(k) Summary February 2004 MAY - 5 2004 - Medtronic Sofamor Danek I. Company: 1800 Pyramid Place Memphis, TN 38132 (901) 396-3133 ### Proprietary Trade Name: VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System II. - Classification Name: Spinal Intervertebral Body Fixation Orthosis (21 CFR III. 888-3060) #### Product Description III. The VERTE-STACK™ device is a stackable spacer, which inserts between vertebral bodies in the anterior thoracic and lumbar spine. The device is intended for vertebral body replacement to aid in the surgical correction and stabilization of the spine. The construct is not intended to be employed as a stand-alone device. The VERTE-STACK™ device is fabricated and manufactured from POLYETHERETHERKETONE (PEEK OPTIMA LT) along with a tantalum marker. Alternatively the device may be manufactured from titanium alloy. The design of the VERTE-STACK™ device includes a variety of stackable components of different sizes and heights. The stackable components are designed to suit the individual patient pathology. The VERTE-STACK™ device may be used individually, or two or more may be stacked together in order to accommodate the individual anatomical requirements of the vertebral space created by the corpoctomy. The VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System must be used with additional anterior and/or posterior spinal instrumentation to augment stability. VERTE-STACK™ constructs manufactured with PEEK may be used with stainless steel or titanium supplemental fixation devices. Titanium VERTE-STACK™ constructs may not be used with stainless steel supplemental fixation devices. The purpose of this submission is to include a modified version of previously cleared VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System BOOMERANG™ PEEK components. page 1 of 2 00042 {1}------------------------------------------------ #### Indications IV. The VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System is a vertebral body replacement device intended for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor or trauma (i.e., fracture). The VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System is to be used with supplemental fixation. Specifically, the VERTE-STACK™ device is to be used with the Medtronic Sofamor Danek ZPLATE II Anterior Fixation System, the DYNALOK™ CLASSIC Spinal System, the VANTAGE™ Anterior Fixation System, the TSRH® Spinal System, the CD HORIZON® Spinal System, the GDLH® Spinal System and/or their successors. Additionally, the VERTE-STACK™ device is intended to be used with bone graft. #### Substantial Equivalence V. Documentation was provided which demonstrated the VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System to be substantially equivalent to the previously cleared VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System K030601 (SE 03/25/03). pay 2 of 2 000043 {2}------------------------------------------------ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
