Minimally Invasive SI Joint Fusion Surgery

The standard surgery used to address SI joint pain is sacroiliac joint fusion.  Dr. Polin is specially trained in minimally invasive sacroiliac joint fusion techniques using various implant options available today. When non surgical options fail, and surgery is indicated, he currently chooses the iFuse Implant System® for his patients whenever possible.

Studies indicate that 15-30% of all chronic low back pain may be attributed to the Sacroiliac Joint.  Physicians have many options today for dealing with SI joint dysfunction. When surgery is indicated, the iFuse Implant System® follows proven principles to promote true intra-articular arthrodesis for optimal patient outcomes.

The goal of SI joint fusion is to relieve the symptoms of SI joint dysfunction by eliminating movement in the worn, arthritic joint.
