Abstract
An implant having an integrated cutting broach and/or cutting burr. The integrated implant may be inserted without requiring separate steps for drilling and broaching bone. The integrated implant assembly may include an integrated implant, a flexible sheath, a delivery rod, and a delivery pin. The implant may have a core which may have any of a variety of cross-sectional geometries. A method for fusing bone may involve inserting the implant laterally through the ilium, through the sacral-iliac joint, and into the sacrum.
