Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of NuVasive interbody implants when used during thoracic and/or lumbar spine surgery as measured by reported complications, radiographic outcomes, and patient-reported outcomes. This study is being undertaken to identify possible residual risks and to clarify mid- to long-term clinical performance that may affect the benefit/risk ratios of these interbody implants.

Eligibility Criteria
The Enrolled Population will include all subjects who meet the criteria for enrollment, specifically, those subjects who: * Satisfied the inclusion and exclusion criteria * Signed the informed consent * Underwent the surgical procedure, as defined in this protocol Subjects not meeting any of these criteria will not be considered enrolled in the study, and therefore not included in any study population or analysis.
You may qualify if:
- Patients who are ≥18 years of age at the time of consent
- Planned spine surgery using interbody implants at:
- One or two adjacent thoracic, lumbar, and/or lumbosacral levels for degenerative disc disease or degenerative spondylolisthesis, or
- One or two adjacent thoracic, lumbar, and/or lumbosacral levels for spinal stenosis (not applicable for MLX, TLX, or XLX ACR), or
- Any number of thoracic, lumbar, and/or lumbosacral levels for degenerative scoliosis (defined as \>10º coronal curve), or
- Any number of thoracic, lumbar, and/or lumbosacral levels for sagittal deformity (not applicable for MLX, TLX, or XLX ACR).
- Use of one of the following implants (NuVasive, Inc., San Diego, CA):
- Base Interfixated
- Brigade Interfixated
- Coalesce Thoracolumbar
- Cohere TLIF
- Cohere XLIF
- Coroent Ti PLIF
- Coroent Ti TLIF
- Coroent Ti XLIF
- +13 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Use of any bone graft that is not cleared by the applicable regulatory body for use within interbody implants. Examples of these include:
- Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) (e.g., Infuse (Medtronic))
- Synthetic bone graft extenders (e.g., Attrax Scaffold (NuVasive), Formagraft (NuVasive), Mastergraft (Medtronic), Vitoss (Stryker), Actifuse (Baxter), nanOss (RTI Surgical), Fibergraft (Prosidyan/Depuy Synthes), ChronOs (Depuy Synthes))
- Demineralized bone matrices (DBM) regulated as medical devices by the FDA (e.g., Grafton Putty/Gel (Medtronic), DBX (MTF/Depuy Synthes), Accell Evo3 (IsoTis), Propel Putty/Gel (NuVasive))
- Peptide enhanced bone graft (e.g., iFactor (Cerapedics))
- Previous lumbar fusion surgery at the level(s) to be treated (adjacent level surgery is acceptable; prior decompression is acceptable)
- Patient is involved in active litigation relating to the spine (worker's compensation claim is allowed if it is not contested)
- Use of bone growth stimulators postoperatively
- Active smoking within 6 weeks before surgery
- Patient has known sensitivity to the materials implanted
- Systemic or local infection (latent or active) or signs of local inflammation
- Patient has inadequate bone stock or bone quality, or a physical or medical condition that would prohibit beneficial surgical outcomes based on surgeon judgment
- Patient is a prisoner
- Patient is participating in another clinical study that would confound study data
