Randomized Controlled Trial of Minimally Invasive Sacroiliac Joint Fusion Using Triangular Titanium Implants versus Nonsurgical Management for Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction: 12-Month Outcomes

BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Sacroiliac (SI) joint pain is a prevalent but underdiagnosed cause of low back pain. Surgical fusion can relieve pain and improve quality of life in patients who fail nonoperative care. We report a prospective multicenter randomized clinical trial of minimally invasive SI joint fusion using triangular titanium implants or nonsurgical management (NSM) in patients with chronic SI joint pain.
