Utility of minimally invasive percutaneous arthrodesis of the sacroiliac joint for the treatment of low back pain: systematic review of the literature

  • Juan Carlos Acevedo-Gonzalez,
  • Isabella Lacouture-Silgado

摘要

Background

The surprising increase observed in recent years in the use of minimally invasive sacroiliac joint arthrodesis techniques as a treatment for low back pain justifies an objective review of this results.

Purpose

carry out a systematic review of the literature to evaluate the clinical results of patients with low back pain treated with percutaneous arthrodesis of the SIJ.

Study design

Systematic review.

Methods

Systematic search of the medical literature. The words used in the Search were: “Hollow screw system”, “percutaneous sacroiliac joint stabilization”, “sacroiliac joint”, “minimally invasive”, “sacroiliac pain”, “sacroiliac dysfunction”. With logical connectors such as “and”, “not” and “or”.

Databases

Pubmed, Scopus, Embase, Ovid, EBSCO host and google scholar. The search extended from the beginning of the databases until September 2024. The “Rayyan” program was used to collect the information and facilitate the analysis process.

Inclusion criteria

Systematic review from the literature, clinical trials, observational studies and case series. They followed PRISMA principles.

Results

661 articles were found, of which 108 articles were duplicates. The criteria (Inclusion/Exclusion) were applied to the 553 articles identified based on the independent reading of the summaries by each of the authors on the Rayyan platform and 434 articles were excluded. The 119 selected articles were completely reviewed to finally obtain 102 articles included in the review. Epidemiological data were extracted into an Excel table, methodological and related to clinical results and safety of procedures made. The Prisma checklist for systematic reviews was applied in each article. The epidemiological quality of the articles was evaluated based on the checklists STROBE and CONSORT. The results regarding clinical improvement were overwhelming. However, most of the studies were sponsored by industry and with a limited population and follow-up not always prolonged.

Conclusions

Although the clinical results regarding the effectiveness of SIJ fusion are forceful for their effectiveness, we recommend considering some aspects for their analysis and especially long-term studies.
