Abstract:
Lower back pain attributed to the sacroiliac joint (SIJ) is prevalent but historically has been frequently underdiagnosed. Even when the SIJ is properly identified as a source of lower back pain, individuals suffering from SIJ dysfunction are often not treated effectively. Improved educational resources for clinicians based on effective evidence-based treatments for SIJ dysfunction are critical in improving the current gap in diagnosis and treatment. Several established and emerging treatments exist for patients with SIJ dysfunction, but prior to this text, no comprehensive resource has existed that addressed management of SIJ dysfunction. This text presents a full and up-to-date review of all the available treatments for SIJ dysfunction, with the aim of providing clinicians with a single comprehensive resource for treatment of their patients.

Abstract:
Sacroiliac joint dysfunction is a common cause of chronic low back pain. Certain populations are particularly susceptible to disorders of this unique joint. Anatomically, the joint is complex, and the clinician must understand both intrinsic and extrinsic structures in its vicinity. Unfortunately, there are no particular pathognomonic findings on radiologic imaging. A cluster of physical examination findings has been recognized as demonstrating sacroiliac joint pain. Various treatment options exist in the evidence-based treatment of this condition.

Abstract:
Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) injections are valuable tools for diagnosing the source of low back pain and selecting patients for a radiofrequency ablation procedure, which tends to provide long-term relief for low back pain associated with SIJ dysfunction. Sacroiliac joint injections are generally safe and well-tolerated procedures. The most common complication is initial pain from distension of the joint capsule with contrast and local anesthetic. Despite adequate intra-articular needle placement, extravasation of local anesthetic may diffuse to lumbosacral nerve roots and/or the sciatic nerve, causing transient numbness and/or weakness. This chapter reviews the advantages of fluoroscopically guided SIJ injections as well as the step-by-step technique and how to avoid complications.

Abstract:
Sacroiliac (SI) joint disease is a common cause of low back pain. It is not easily diagnosed by physical examination, as the joint has limited mobility and referral patterns are not sufficiently delineated from other pathological conditions implicated in low back pain. The accuracy of provocative testing of the sacroiliac joint is controversial. Many physicians use injection of the SI joint with local anesthetic and/or steroid as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool in treating SI joint–related pain. Historically, SI joint intra-articular injections have been performed without imaging guidance. Imaging-guided techniques, often using CT fluoroscopy, increase the precision of these procedures and help confirm needle placement while achieving better results and reduced complications rates. Sacroiliac joint injection is routinely performed on an outpatient basis. The patient is questioned regarding previous steroid use (oral, cutaneous, or injected) to avoid iatrogenic Cushing syndrome. Repeat injections can be administered depending on patient’s response.

Abstract:
Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain is the source of back pain in up to 25% of patients presenting with back pain. There is significant individual variation in the anatomy of the sacrum and the lumbosacral junction. SIJ pain is diagnosed with the history and physical examination. SIJ injection of a local anesthetic along with steroids is often used to confirm the diagnosis. Nonoperative treatment includes nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories, physical therapy, joint manipulation therapies, and SIJ injections. SIJ pain can also be successfully treated with radiofrequency ablation in some patients. Surgical treatment includes the open anterior sacroiliac joint fusion technique and minimally invasive techniques. The benefits of minimally invasive SIJ fusion versus open surgery include less blood loss, decreased surgical time, and shorter hospital stay. Further studies are needed to determine the long-term durability of the minimally invasive surgical techniques.

Abstract:
The sacroiliac joint (SIJ) is often overlooked as a cause of pain, partially because it is not well visualized on standard imaging and partially because other structures may refer pain to it. This chapter reviews the anatomy of the SIJ as well as the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of SI joint dysfunction and pain, including a multitude of physical exam maneuvers such as the FABER, Gaenslen, extension, Gillet’s, sacroiliac shear, thigh thrust, compression, and distraction tests. In addition, it discusses the evidence-based approach to treat sacroiliac pain, with a focus on both conservative and nonconservative approaches such as image-guided steroid injections and radiofrequency denervation procedures and outcomes.

Abstract:
Joint infection is the most common local complication of brucellosis and is a frequent cause of infectious arthritis in endemic areas. Brucellosis is prevalent in countries of the Mediterranean basin, the Near East, South America, and possibly sub-Saharan Africa. Brucella melitensis and B. abortus are the most common species. Arthralgia occurs in 70% of patients with brucellosis, Large peripheral joints are a common site of localized infection. The sacroiliac joint is frequently involved (30–75%) in recent series. First-line treatment is with doxycycline combined with either streptomycin or gentamycin.

Abstract:
Radiography of the sacroiliac (SI) joints still forms the cornerstone of diagnosis of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA), although its limitations in early disease preclude early diagnosis. Equivocal radiographic findings of sacroiliitis should be followed by MRI evaluation of the SI joints, especially if clinical suspicion of SpA is high. Routine diagnostic evaluation for SpA by MRI of the SI joints should include simultaneous evaluation of T1-weighted (T1W) and short tau inversion recovery (STIR) or T2 fat-suppressed scans. Bone marrow oedema (BME) in subchondral bone is the primary MRI feature that points to the diagnosis of SpA, although structural lesions such as erosion and fat metaplasia may also be evident in early disease and enhance confidence in the diagnosis. Both inflammatory and structural lesions in the SI joints on MRI can now be quantified in a reliable manner to facilitate therapeutic evaluation in clinical trials and for basic and clinical research.

Abstract:
Computed tomography (CT)-guidance is typically used when precise needle placement is essential for a successful procedure. It uses ionizing radiation, which could pose risks to the patient and operating staff if proper technique is not used. The performing physician should adhere to all principles of minimizing radiation exposure to the patient and clinicians. Common CT-guided imaging procedures include facet injections, nerve root injections, sacroiliac joint injections, intradiscal procedures, vertebroplasty/sacroplasty, and image-guided ablation of painful bone lesions. Computed tomography is also the imaging modality of choice for aspiration of deep paraspinal soft tissues in addition to disc space or bone biopsy in acute discitis/osteomyelitis. In fluoroscopic-guided knee or shoulder joint injections, CT arthrography is a useful adjunct to better assess anatomy when MRI is contraindicated. When imaging the postoperative spine, CT myelography has some advantages over MRI, and CT is also superior to MRI in assessing par intra-articularis defects or spondylolysis.

Abstract:
Nonmalignant chronic pelvic pain is defined as nonmenstrual pain below the level of the umbilicus that has continued for at least 6 months and is severe enough to seek medical or surgical treatment. In chronic pelvic pain, the pain and disability may often appear out of proportion to physical abnormalities, and this pain is often refractory to medical and surgical therapies. Significant psychiatric comorbidities and many medical comorbidities often accompany pelvic pain. Although most pelvic pain patients are female, several conditions can cause chronic pelvic pain in males. When evaluating and diagnosing various pelvic pain conditions, it is imperative to rule out malignancy and other organic causes. Pelvic floor dysfunction, sacroiliac joint instability, and other mechanical issues are often partially involved in the process of chronic pelvic pain. As a clinician, all of these variables must be taken into consideration when evaluating and treating chronic pelvic pain patient.

Abstract:
♦ The pelvis acts as a fulcrum for the forces transmitted between the lower limb and trunk especially on twisting and turning movements while running, and in the reverse direction when kicking. Sports injuries around the pelvis are therefore common in weight-bearing sports, such as running, football, rugby, and basketball♦ Injury can occur to the various structures around the pelvis. Bone stress injuries affect the symphysis pubis, pubic rami, femoral neck, and sacrum. Stress fractures are more common in women and may occur as part of the female athlete triad (Box 7.15.1) where there is hypo-oestrogenaemia and low bone density♦ Tendon injuries, including enthesopathies, most commonly affect the adductors, lower abdominals, glutei and hamstrings. Hip injuries can occur as a result of labral tears and femoroacetabular impingement. Sacroiliac joint instability may also cause symptoms especially in the buttock region. Synovitis of either joint may suggest an inflammatory arthritis♦ Pain is the most common symptom. However it may be referred from elsewhere, especially the lumbar spine. Pain may also originate from other systems including the reproductive organs and the gastrointestinal and urinary tracts.

Abstract:
Although axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) starts in the sacroiliac joints in the vast majority of cases, the spine can be clinically affected with similar severity and frequency, especially in long-standing disease. In addition, not only the inflammatory but also structural changes seen in the sacroiliac joints can be visualized in the same way in the spine when using the appropriate imaging techniques. For the interpretation of imaging findings in axSpA, typical and frequent differential diagnoses need to be taken into account, such as degenerative changes, bacterial inflammation, and fractures, and also non-pathological findings such as haemangioma. This chapter concentrates on the imaging of the spine in axSpA, giving an extensive overview of the relevant diagnostic and differential diagnostic findings in patients with axSpA and the most common differential diagnoses.

Abstract:
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease predominantly of the sacroiliac joint (SIJ) and the spine. It starts normally in the second decade of life and has a slight male predominance. The prevalence is between 0.2 and 0.8% and is strongly dependent on the prevalence of HLA B27 in a given population. For the diagnosis of AS, the presence of radiographic sacroiliitis is mandatory. However, radiographs do not detect active inflammation but only structural bony damage. Most recently new classification criteria for axial spondyloarthritis (SpA) have been developed by the Assessement of Spondylo-Arthritis international Society (ASAS) which cover AS but also the earlier form of non-radiographic axial SpA. MRI has become an important new tool for the detection of subchondral bone marrow inflammation in SIJ and spine and has become increasingly important for an early diagnosis. HLA B27 plays a central role in the pathogenesis but its exact interaction with the immune system has not yet been clarified. Besides pain and stiffness in the axial skeleton patients suffer also from periods of peripheral arthritis, enthesitis, and uveitis. New bone formation as a reaction to inflammation and subsequent ankylosis of the spine determine long-term outcome in a subgroup of patients. Currently only non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and tumour necrosis factor (TNF) blockers have been proven to be effective in the medical treatment of axial SpA, and international ASAS recommendations for the structured management of axial SpA have been published based on these two types of drugs. Conventional disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) such as methotrexate are not effective.
