CAVUX Cervical Cage is indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine (C3-C7) with accompanying radicular symptoms at one disc level. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. Patients should have received at least six weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the device. Devices are intended to be used with autogenous bone graft and supplemental fixation, such as an anterior plating system.
A device intended to be implanted into the space of an intervertebral disc that has been partially or totally removed during surgery in order to allow bone fusion between two contiguous vertebral bodies, typically in the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD). It is in the form of a hollow, porous, threaded and/or fenestrated cylindrical or geometrical device made of metal [e.g., titanium (Ti)] that provides mechanical stability and sufficient space for therapeutic spinal bone fusion to occur; bone graft is typically used to help with osseointegration. Fixation screws and devices associated with implantation may be included with the device.
