Abstract
The femoral nerve is the structure most at risk of compression by the INFIX rod. Careful surgical technique is required in every step of this surgery. We suggest using polyaxial screws and recommend that during screw insertion the surgeon should leave some space between the screw and rectus fascia. The the rod should be trimmed as short as possible to reduce LFCN irritation.
