This is a clinically valuable report because until now there was no reconstructive surgery to revise direct lateral implants other than removal with potential neurovascular risks. This is the first article to demonstrate a lateral-oblique transfixation technique with two variable-threaded screws for successful salvage of SIJ pseudoarthrosis after direct lateral fixation without implant removal. The Sacrix technique achieved immediate stability and long-term fusion documented on computed tomography (CT) scan as early as  6 months.
