The levels of pedicle screws fixation are limited to L3-S1.
A spinal system consisting of screws, hooks, washers, spacer and plates/screws. The pedicle screws are available in four diameters from 5mm to 8mm, and vary in length from 30mm to 55mm. The spinal rods have a diameter of 4.75mm and vary in length from 50mm to 500mm. The anterior washers offer use with 5mm, 6mm, and 7mm screws. The Conical spacers are available in three heights from 7mm to 12mm, increasing in 2.5 increments. The lumbo-sacral rod/plate and screw incorporates lumbo-sacral rod/plates in three lengths from 80mm to 120mm, and bone screws with a 7mm diameter and lengths of 30mm to 45mm, increasing in 5mm increments.

§ 888.3060 Spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis.
(a)
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.(b)
Classification. Class II.
