For the cadaveric study<jats:italic>,<\/jats:italic> 10 fixed sacroiliac joint (SIJ) sectional specimens, 4 dried cadaveric pelvises and 21 embalmed adult cadaveric pelvises were dissected, followed by an injection of contrast agent into the joint. The irrigation of the agent was observed through CT scanning. For the radiologic study, 188 CT scans of ankylosing spondylitis patients (143 male, 45 female) were collected from 2010 to 2012, in Nanfang Hospital. What was measured was (1) Distance between the posterior midline and sagittal synovium; (2) Length of the sagittal synovium; (3) Distance between the midpoint of the sagittal synovium and posterior superior iliac spine; and (4) Distance between the superficial skin vertical to the sagittal synovium point were measured. For the practice-based study: 20 patients (17 males and 3 females) with early ankylosing spondylitis, from Nanfang Hospital affiliated with Southern Medical University were recruited, and sacroiliac joint unguided injections were done on the basis of the cadaveric and radiologic study. Only the inferior 1\/3<jats:sup>rd<\/jats:sup> portion parallel to the posterior midline could be injected into since the superior 2\/3<jats:sup>rd<\/jats:sup> portion were filled with interosseous ligaments. Thirteen of the 20 patients received successful injections as identified by CT scan using the contrast agent. Sacroiliac joint injection following simple X-ray clip location is possible and feasible if the operation is performed by trained physicians familiar with the sacroiliac joint and its surrounding anatomic structures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.9738\/intsurg-d-13-00194.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,2,18]],"date-time":"2015-02-18T21:49:28Z","timestamp":1424296168000},"page":"320-327","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["A Cadaveric Study on Sacroiliac Joint Injection"],"prefix":"10.9738","volume":"100","author":[{"given":"Yu-Cong","family":"Zou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Southern Medical University, Guang Zhou, People's Republic of China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yi-Kai","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Southern Medical University, Guang Zhou, People's Republic of China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Cheng-Fu","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, SinoWest Medical Hospital, Guang Zhou, People's Republic of China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xian-Wen","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Southern Medical University, Guang Zhou, People's Republic of China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Run-Qi","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Southern Medical University, Guang Zhou, People's Republic of China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"4721","reference":[{"issue":"4","key":"i0020-8868-100-2-320-b01","series-title":"Arthritis Rheum","first-page":"361","article-title":"Evaluation of diagnostic criteria for ankylosing spondylitis.
