Indications for Use
The Endoskeleton® TAS Interbody Fusion Device is indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolistiss at the involved level(s). Patients should have received 6 months of non-operative treatment with the devices. The device is a standalone system that is intended to be used with the bone screws provided and requires no additional supplementary fixation. The device is indicated to be used with autograft bone. Hyperlordotic Devices ≥16° The Endoskeleton® TAS Hyperlordotic Interbody Fusion Device(≥16°) is indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Patients should have received 6 months of non to treatment with the devices. The device is indicated to be used with autograft bone. The Endosketon® TAS Hyperlordotic Interbody Fusion Device must be used with a posterior supplemental internal spinal fixation that has been cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine.
Device Story
Interbody fusion device for ALIF procedures; titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V-ELI) implant with hollow center for autograft bone; features Chemtex or nanoLOCK surface treatments for bone fixation; includes integrated bone screws. Standard TAS device functions as standalone system; Hyperlordotic versions (≥16°) require posterior supplemental internal fixation. Implant placed in interbody space by surgeon to facilitate fusion; windows allow radiographic visualization of bone graft and new bone formation. Benefits include structural support and fusion at disc space.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Mechanical testing performed per ASTM F2077 and ASTM 2267 (static/dynamic compression, shear, subsidence, expulsion). Additional evidence includes cadaver study and radiographic/CAD analysis.
Technological Characteristics
Medical grade titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V-ELI). Surface treatments: Chemtex or nanoLOCK (microscopic roughened surface with nano-scale features). Mechanical testing per ASTM F2077 and ASTM 2267. Integrated fixation via bone screws. Form factor: ALIF interbody spacer with hollow center and windows.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1, with or without Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis, who have failed 6 months of 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.
