1. Intended Purpose
The intended purpose of the Photodynamic Light Curing System is to deliver visible light to
the IlluminOss Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System implant to polymerize and harden
the photodynamic liquid monomer contained within the balloon portion of the implant.
2. Indications
There are no specific indications for this device.
This device is used only in conjunction with the IlluminOss Photodynamic Bone Stabilization
System, and therefore the indications that govern its use are those of the implant (reference
IFU 900535). The IlluminOss Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System is indicated for use in
fracture alignment and reduction. It provides stabilization for bone fractures using a minimally
invasive technique in which the bone is not subjected to significant weight bearing forces. It
is intended for use in treatment of the metacarpal, phalange, clavicle, radius, ulna, distal
radius, olecranon and fibula. It is also indicated for the treatment of impending and actual
pathological fractures of the humerus from metastatic bone disease.
3. Contraindications
