Insertional torque and pullout strength of reinserted screws for sacroiliac joint fusion: Effects of implant dimensions, bone density, and tapping
Our findings provide evidence-based insight for optimizing implant selection and surgical technique in revision SIJ fusion procedures using screw fusion devices. Particularly, it is emphasized that both implant dimensions and patient-specific bone quality must be considered to achieve stable and successful outcomes.
