Abstract: A pedicle screw removal device comprises a rod having a first end and a second end opposite the first. A clamping member is located at the first end of the rod, and a handle is located at the second end. The clamping member is configured to remove a pedicle screw via clamping to a pedicle screw socket. To remove a pedicle screw, the rod is inserted into a pedicle screw socket until a screw engagement surface on the first end portion of the rod is met by a head of the pedicle screw. The clamping member is lowered to a desired position and clamped to the pedicle screw socket. Rotating the handle unscrews the pedicle screw while the screw engagement surface is pressing on the screw head.
