Minimally Invasive Posterior SI Joint Fusion with a Novel Cortical Allograft: Real-World, Long-Term, Outcomes from a Large, Multisite US Cohort
Our findings affirm that posterior SI joint fusion constitutes an effective and enduring treatment option for patients suffering from SI joint dysfunction unresponsive to conservative care. The results indicate that posterior SI joint fusion is safe and effective at achieving sustained pain relief. Our findings are congruent with previously published studies and provide further evidence of sustained durable pain outcomes.
