Sacral Spine Surgery | Philip Chandler MD

Sacroiliac Joint Surgery

Sacroiliac (SI) joint fusion is a surgical procedure that permanently joins the sacrum and iliac bones at your sacroiliac joint. This surgery is an option if you have severe low back pain that nonsurgical treatments can’t manage. SI joint fusions have a good success rate and a low risk of long-term complications.
