Abstract
The purpose of this report is to demonstrate the creation of a 4-rod lumbosacral construct, when "stacked" sacral-2-alar-iliac (S2AI) screws are not possible due to a concurrent treatment of sacroiliitis with a posterior approach sacroiliac joint fusion device. This technique uses a combined S2AI and subcrestal iliac approach to achieve the 4-rod lumbosacral construct, while simultaneously biomechanically supporting the S2AI screws and treating the sacroiliitis.
