The proper diagnosis and treatment of sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain remains a clinical challenge. Dysfunction of the SIJ can produce pain in the lower back, buttocks, and extremities. The present prospective clinical study is a follow-up report on a previous 1-year report on the use of a novel hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated titanium screw for the surgical treatment of SIJ dysfunction.
