The present invention relates to an implant, and more precisely in the preferred embodiment, a fenestrated non-distracting rod for use in association with spinal surgery. The implant is to be placed via the pre-sacral approach in an embodiment of the invention. The fenestrations incorporated within the preferred embodiment are configured to collect bone during transit through the sacrum, and then optionally configured to contact and/or deposit bone collected into the L5-S1 disc space area.
