Sacroiliac Joint Pain: Accurate Diagnosis and Effective Treatment with iFuse

Low back pain can stem from various sources, and one often overlooked culprit is the sacroiliac (SI) joint. Pain originating from this joint can be easily mistaken for facet joint pain or discogenic pain, leading to misdiagnosis and ineffective treatment. Accurate diagnosis requires clinical expertise and a thorough examination, as imaging studies may not always clearly identify SI joint dysfunction.

Understanding Sacroilitis

Sacroilitis, or inflammation of the SI joint, often arises from mechanical overload. Patients with long lumbar spine fusion constructs are particularly susceptible to this condition, as the fusion limits spinal mobility, placing increased stress on the SI joint.

iFuse: A Minimally Invasive Solution for SI Joint Pain

The iFuse Implant System offers a minimally invasive approach to stabilize and fuse the SI joint. This innovative system utilizes titanium implants to provide immediate fixation and promote bone fusion without the need for bone grafting.

Benefits of iFuse

  • Minimally Invasive: Implanted through a small 3 cm incision, minimizing tissue disruption and scarring.
  • Rapid Recovery: Patients are typically discharged within 24 hours and can return to normal activities with crutches within a few weeks.
  • High Fusion Rate: The iFuse system demonstrates a high success rate in achieving SI joint fusion.
  • Reduced Pain: Provides effective relief from SI joint pain and improves quality of life.
