The FacilisTM Spinal System is a non- cervical, pedicle screw system intended to provide posterior, non-cervical immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment; fracture; dislocation; scoliosis; kyphosis; spinal tumor; and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis).

The FacilisTM Spinal System is also indicated for the treatment of severe spondylolisthesis (Grade 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra in skeletally mature patients receiving fusion by autogenous bone graft, with the implant fixed or attached to the lumbar and sacral spine (L3 to sacrum) with removal of the implants after the attainment of a solid fusion.

The Facilis "14 Spinal System is a system that is indicated for multiple types of spinal fusion procedures (please see Section IV). All components are made from titanium alloy Titanium-6 Aluminum-4 Vanadium (Ti-6AL-4V), a biocompatible material which complies with ASTM F136. The components, which are included as part of the system, include screws, rods, hooks and accessory connection components. The Facilis™ Spinal Systems are supplied "Non-Steriled" and must be sterilized before use.
