TirboLOX-C Titanium Cervical CageCaptiva Spine Adds Cervical Cages to TirboLOX™ Dual Layer Lattice Structure 3D Printed Titanium Cage Offering

Jupiter, FL, August 2018 – Captiva Spine is a medical device organization located in Jupiter, Florida, dedicated to delivering smart, elegant and intuitive spinal fusion solutions. Today, Captiva Spine is announcing it has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to market its TirboLOX-C 3D Printed Titanium Cervical Cages.

TirboLOX-C Titanium Cervical Cages

TirboLOX-C Titanium Cervical Cages were created following the principles of biomimicry.   The titanium alloy interbody fusion devices with a dual layer organic lattice structure are formed using advanced 3D printing technologies. This lattice structure features a micro-rough surface topography, interconnected dual porosity, and open architecture.  Titanium alloy implants with micro-rough surface topographies and dual porosity have been shown to promote direct bony on growth, in growth and vascularization. TirboLOX-C’s open architecture is designed to reduce radiographic presence for clear imaging.  TirboLOX-C’s high coefficient of friction creates immediate bidirectional fixation.

Dale Mitchell, President and Founder of Captiva Spine said, “Our design development, incorporating substantial surgeon design input, including dual layer porous 3D printed titanium cages, dates back several years.  The timing for commercialization is excellent, as surgeons’ apparent growing preference for porous 3D printed titanium cages is substantial.  In addition, the recently announced industry acquisitions, that include 3D cage technology, may limit independent distributors’ access to this critical growth technology.  Likewise, we are pleased to make our complete line of TirboLOX 3D printed titanium cages available to support their surgeons’ needs.”  Captiva Spine is able to deliver TirboLOX Cervical’s unique dual layer organic lattice structure with numerous geometries and sizes satisfying a wide range of surgeon preferences.

Captiva Spine’s TirboLOX-C Titanium Cervical Cages are one of five new product launches that will be featured at Booth 1649 during the North American Spine Society (NASS) Annual Meeting held in Los Angles, September 26-28, 2018.

Captiva Spine’s TirboLOX-L™ Dual Layer Organic Lattice Structure 3D Printed Titanium Lumbar Cages Receive Clearance

Jupiter, FL, August 2018 – Captiva Spine is a medical device organization located in Jupiter, Florida, dedicated to delivering smart, elegant and intuitive spinal fusion solutions. Today, Captiva Spine is announcing it has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to market its TirboLOX-L 3D Printed Titanium Lumbar Cages.

TirboLOX-L Titanium Lumbar Cages

TirboLOX-L Titanium Lumbar Cages are created using advanced 3D printing technologies to form titanium alloy interbody fusion devices with a dual layer organic lattice structure. This lattice structure features a micro-rough surface topography, interconnected dual porosity, and open architecture.  Titanium alloy implants with micro-rough surface topographies and dual porosity have been shown to promote direct bony ongrowth, ingrowth and vascularization. TirboLOX-L’s open architecture is designed to reduce radiographic presence for clear imaging.  TirboLOX-L’s high coefficient of friction creates immediate bidirectional fixation.

Dennis Ty, Director of R&D of Captiva Spine declared, “With the advanced capabilities of 3D Additive Manufacturing we were able to create a unique lattice structure similar to trabecular bone incorporating a micro-rough surface for clot retention and early osteogenic cell migration, including a dual layer of porosity with pore sizes specifically designed to promote bone ingrowth and vascularization.  Through substantial surgeon design input we are able to deliver TirboLOX-L’s unique dual layer organic lattice structure with numerous geometries and sizes that appeal to a wide range of surgeon preferences.”

Dale Mitchell, President and Founder of Captiva Spine said, “I am pleased our development team was able to incorporate our proprietary Pivotec® Pivoting TLIF Cage into TirboLOX.  Pivotec technology has been used in thousands of surgeries to address the challenges of controlling cage insertion and angle manipulation during surgery and is now available in a wide range of porous Titanium 3D printed, sterile packaged implants. This is especially important during minimally invasive (MIS) applications where time and safety is always of the essence.”

Captiva Spine’s TirboLOX-L Lumbar Cages are one of five new product launches that will be featured at Booth 1649 during the North American Spine Society (NASS) Annual Meeting held in Los Angles, September 26-28, 2018.

TransFasten Posterior SI  Fusion System 

Captiva Spine is a medical device organization located in Jupiter, Florida, dedicated to creating sincere and collaborative relationships to deliver smart, elegant, and intuitive spine fusion solutions. Today, Captiva Spine is announcing the alpha launch of the TransFasten Posterior SI Fusion System.  The TransFasten Posterior SI Fusion System was developed in conjunction with Robert Lins, M.D., Orthopedic Spine Surgeon at The Center for Bone & Joint Surgery of the Palm Beaches.

“My goal was to develop a safe and efficient posterior approach potentially reducing operative time, neurovascular complications, and achieving a quadracentric press fit that neither compresses nor expands the sacroiliac joint,” Dr. Lins explained.  “We are creating a fusion site similar to a mortise and tenon joint used in woodworking for thousands of years.” Dr. Lins continued to explain “TransFasten’s streamlined instrumentation and straightforward procedure provide for efficient joint preparation and precise press fit of a QuadraCentric Implant.”


To explain the QuadraCentric Joint Preparation simply…
A) Dock the QuadraCentric Drill Guide at the SI joint.
B) Ream the implant site.
C) Impact the QuadraCentric Implant and graft material.


“The launch of TransFasten (a posterior SI fusion system) is a key milestone in our drive to deliver clinical and economic value for patients, surgeons, and healthcare facilities,” said Dale Mitchell, President and Founder of Captiva Spine.

  • Posterior Approach – Potentially reduces operative time and Neurovascular complications.
  • Posterior Fusion Site Preparation – Allows for efficient preparation of the joint and press fit implant placement.
  • A form of “Mortise and Tenon” Stabilization of the SI Joint (a proven and established method of Architectural Stabilization) – The geometry of the TransFasten implant across the joint is designed to stabilize the motion segment without disrupting the anatomy and creating new pain generators.
  • Structural Allograft Implant – Custom allograft implant includes a large trans-joint graft window for accommodating a biologic fusion.

Training Opportunities Available. Call Captiva Spine direct at 561-277-9480.
