Sacroiliac Joint Fusion
Sacroiliac joint fusion is a surgical procedure that involves fusing the SI joint to stabilize it. This can provide significant relief for patients who have not found relief with conservative treatments.
When is Sacroiliac Joint Fusion Necessary?
Sacroiliac joint fusion may be considered when:
- Conservative treatments (physical therapy, pain medications, injections) have failed
- Pain is severe and interferes with daily activities
- The patient is a good surgical candidate
The Fusion Process
The fusion procedure typically involves:
- Making an incision in the lower back
- Preparing the joint surfaces
- Placing bone graft material between the joint surfaces
- Securing the joint with screws or plates
