Removal of infected bone in-growth pelvic fixation implants and microcomputed tomography analysis of osseous integration: illustrative case.

Micro-CT clearly demonstrated osseous integration of the screw fusion devices and provided significant support for the use of these implants for lumbopelvic fixation. The authors' hope is that the novel bone-preserving technique will help other surgeons when faced with the difficult removal of well-fixed screw fusion devices. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE24274.
