Summary

The purpose of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the Aspen™ device compared to pedicle screw instrumentation for posterior fixation in the treatment of patients with degenerative disc disease and/or spondylolisthesis. The Aspen™ device will be compared to pedicle screw instrumentation in Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) improvement and success of fusion.
