Hi nicodf,i had same surgery 2yrs ago ended up with failed surgery.You know since if it has fused like mine did that was not the problem,as far as removing hardware unless it shows on mri causing any obstructions no need to remove i have mine in.Find out what material was used to fuse,if it was infuse BMP-2 you have a problem ask your surgeon for ops record.
