This document addresses proposed indications for sacroiliac joint fusion, a surgical procedure which fuses the iliac bone (pelvis) to the spine (sacrum). It is performed for a variety of orthopedic conditions including trauma (with fracture), infection, cancer, and spinal instability.
The sacroiliac joint is formed between one side of the sacrum (a bone forming the termination of the spine) and the inner portion of the ilium (or wing-like bony protrusion of the pelvis, which also forms some of the hip joint). The ilium and sacrum may fuse together into one bone, which is associated with aging.
