Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a retrospective clinical study (chart review) of patients who have previously undergone Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion or Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion surgery with the FlareHawk expandable interbody fusion cage at one or two contiguous levels.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients who have undergone a Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF) or Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion (PLIF) procedure with a FlareHawk expandable interbody fusion cage(s) to assess the device's performance and safety when used in accordance with its intended use. The primary hypothesis is that study subjects who received the FlareHawk expandable cage(s) through a TLIF or PLIF procedure experienced fusion by 12 months (+/- 3 mo) follow-up, with improvements in clinical outcomes related to pain and/or disability compared to pre-operative scores. Further, the subjects are hypothesized to have not experienced any unforeseen device- or procedure-related adverse events.
