Indications
The MONT BLANC system is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar and sacral/iliac spine.
This MONT BLANC system is intended for posterior noncervical pedicle fixation and non-pedicle fixation (from T1 to S1) for the following indications in skeletally mature patients:
• degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies);
• spondylolisthesis;
• trauma (i.e., fracture or dislocation);
• spinal stenosis;
• deformities (i.e., scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis);
• spinal tumor;
• pseudoarthrosis; and
• failed previous fusion.
The MONT BLANC system is intended to be used with autograft and/or allograft.
When used in adolescent patients, the MONT BLANC system is indicated as an adjunct to fusion to treat idiopathic scoliosis.
