Captiva Spine

Patented Mortise and Tenon Site Preparation:
Our instrumentation pairs two drill bit sizes to create a square (QuadraCentric), 37 mm deep, elongated channel, 10 mm wide, allowing the TransFasten implant to cross the ilium, the sacroiliac joint, and into the sacrum, thus transfixing the sacroiliac joint.

Once drilled, you are left with 12 ridges in the channel intended to supply circumferential fixation of the implant upon insertion. This preparation aims to create bio-mechanical stability of the motion segment without the unnecessary distraction of the SI joint.

Narrow Outer Diameter – Wider Space Between Tabs
This translates to minimal tissue disruption and easier, more forgiving rod insertion.

Tower Reattachment
In-situ tower attachment provides MIS rescue/revision option. This may eliminate the challenges associated with removing and replacing screws.

Efficient Rod Reduction
15mm of controlled rod reduction built-in Additional external rod reduction, within the TowerLOX MIS System, allows up to 32mm of reduction.

Inserter Options with PIVOQUIK® and PIVOROD®-LP

Unique Implant Features

Captiva Spine’s TirboLOX titanium cervical and lumbar (TLIF/PLIF) interbody cages are created using advanced 3D printing technology. This is an additive manufacturing process that enabled TirboLOX implants to have unique surface features and structures not possible with traditional machining. Purposely designed to potentially promote a strong interface between metal and bone (biologic fixation) TirboLOX incorporates:

• Surface roughness (with peaks and valleys) outside and inside the implant

• Interconnected organic lattice structure featuring a dual layer of varying porosities

• Open architecture to reduce radiographic presence for clear imaging.
