ChoiceSpine has launched a line extension for its TigerShark lateral interbody system. The expanded implant offering was engineered to accommodate a wider range of patient anatomies.

TigerShark lateral uses the company’s BioBond porous trabecular structure, which leverages additive manufacturing to create distinct and intentionally designed submicron, micro, and macro interconnected architecture. The company said this supports optimized surface contact, load sharing, and osseointegration.

The expanded implant sizes have additional incremental heights, supporting more precise intervertebral reconstruction to meet anatomical and clinical needs encountered in a lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) procedure.

“This line extension reflects a meaningful step forward in tailoring spine surgery to each individual patient,” said Stuart D. Kinsella, MD, MSTR. “We now have more personalized tools to achieve our surgical goals that can match the patient’s unique spinal profile.”

TigerShark lateral interbodies feature three lordotic options for each interbody footprint: 0°, 6°, and 12°. They feature large central openings and deep perimeter cuts to help maximize volume for bone graft material placement. According to ChoiceSpine, they boast excellent visibility under fluoroscopy.

“By working closely with our surgeon partners, we continue to design solutions that more precisely address the real-world variability in patient anatomy,” said Stephen Ainsworth, Ph.D., ChoiceSpine’s co-president. “This collaboration ensures that our technology evolves in step with the clinical challenges and opportunities faced in modern spine surgery.”

In July, the company launched a new app for surgical use on the eCential Op.n robotic and navigation platform.
