I had an ALIF in the middle of July. It's only partly fused and one of my pedicle screws backed out like 1.5 cm. Luckily, it's the one under the part of the bone that's fused, so it won't go anywhere.
Next surgery is bolts and rods to stabilize the joint on the posterior side.
Hopefully, this makes it so the fusion sets easier, and if it doesn't, the joint maintains it's height due to the posterior hardware.
