Genesis Innovation Group announced the formation of its newest subsidiary, Capitan Orthopedics.
Capitan Orthopedics’ SupraSpacer minimally invasive implant provides a long-term, biomechanical solution that addresses irreparable rotator cuff tears. The implant restores joint alignment and allows for pain-free range of motion, while also preserving future surgical options.
“Our team of expert design surgeons and engineers have created a novel implant and a simple, reproducible procedure that provides surgeons with a desperately needed surgical option that positively impacts patient care,” said Chance Leonard, CEO of Genesis Innovation Group and Capitan Orthopedics, Inc.
Lead design surgeon R. Sean Churchill, MD, MBA, said, “By helping maintain the humeral head centered in the joint, the implant not only reduces the risk and advancement of shoulder arthritis, but removes the painful abutment of the humeral head on the undersurface of the acromion, allowing for full impingement free range of motion.”
Mr. Leonard added, “Irreparable rotator cuff tears affect a sizable patient population and we believe that a simple, but lasting, repeatable, minimally-invasive, bone-sparing procedure is both a solution surgeons will embrace, and one that patients will appreciate. We are eager to bring SupraSpacerTM to the market as soon as possible.”
