    ILLlCO¿ MIS Posterior Fixation System, Bone-screw Internal Spinal Fixation System, Orthosis, Spinal Pedical Fixation Orthosis, Spondylolisthesis Spinal Fixation The ILLICO MIS Posterior Fixation System is intended to facilitate the surgical correction of noncervical spinal deformities by providing temporary internal fixation and stabilization during bone graft healing and/or fusion mass development. When used for a minimally invasive posterior approach ILLlCO¿ MIS Instrumentation is used in conjunction with polyaxial screw components. The ILLICO MIS Posterior Fixation System is intended for use as a posterior spinal fixation device to aid in the surgical correction of various spinal deformities and pathologies of the spine. It is intended to provide stabilization during the development of fusion utilizing a bone graft. Specific indications for the ILLICO MIS Posterior Fixation System are dependent in part on the configuration of the assembled device and the method of attachment to the spine.

    Reason

    The firm initiated the recall because the stainless steel guide-wire of the Illico MIS Fixation System did not completely fit/pass through the tip of certain Illico Ti Cannulated Polyaxial Screws, therefore rendering such screws nonfunctional.
