## Intended Use

The Pyrenees Cervical Plate System is indicated for use in anterior screw fixation to the cervical spine ( C2 - C7 ) for the following indications : degenerative disc disease ( DDD ), spondylolisthesis, trauma ( including fractures ), spinal stenosis and tumors ( primary and metastatic ), failed previous fusions (pseudarthrosis ) and deformity ( defined as scoliosis, kyphosis or lordosis ).

## Device Story

Spinal fixation system consisting of cervical plates and screws; used as adjunct to fusion to provide immobilization and stabilization of cervical spine segments (C2-C7). Components available in various sizes to match patient anatomy. Used by surgeons in clinical settings. Device provides mechanical support to facilitate spinal fusion.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Manufactured from commercially pure titanium and titanium alloys per ASTM and ISO standards. System consists of plates and screws for spinal fixation.

## Regulatory 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.

- Tectonic Cervical Plate System (K2M, LLC)
- PEAK Anterior Cervical Plate System (Depuy Acromed)

Dear Mr. Harris:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations. Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

## Page 2 - Mr. Richard W. Woods

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
