It is an integrated cage and screw system that’s implanted bilaterally in the facet joints for patients with degenerative disc disease, according to a news release. 

Clearance was supported by a 57-patient study, and 96% of levels were “determined to be fused as defined by a range of motion less than 5° on flexion/extension x-rays assessed by an independent core imaging lab.”
