CT Scan Outcome Of Its Percutaneous Lateral-Oblique Technique For Sacroiliac Joint (SIJ) Fusion

Clinical and CT scan outcomes proved the effectiveness of the Sacrix percutaneous lateral-oblique technique for achieving sacroiliac joint fusion in an outpatient setting.


MALDEN, Mass. (PRWEB)

Sacrix LLC (Boston, MA) is pleased to announce the publication of the “Clinical Outcomes of Novel Lateral-Oblique Percutaneous Sacroiliac Joint (SIJ) Fixation”, a study using a technique developed by Dr. Kingsley R Chin MD, a Harvard-Trained Board-Certified Orthopedic Spine Surgeon and Professor. The peer-reviewed publication highlights the effectiveness and positive outcomes for patients who underwent sacroiliac joint fixation surgery with Sacrix.

Dr. Kingsley R. Chin MD performed the procedures at the LES Clinic in an outpatient setting. The study was conducted with co-authors Dr. Fabio Pencle MBBS, Dr. Jason Seale MBBS, and Dr. Deepak K. Pandey, Ph.D.

Patients were observed for a minimum of 24 months to evaluate their responses to treatment. The medical charts were reviewed along with follow-up radiographic computed tomography (CT) scans to assess radiographic fusion, characterized as bridging bone across the SI joint with no signs of implant loosening such as haloes around the screws, change in position, or screw breakage. The study evaluated patients’ demographics, the pain visual analog scale (VAS) score, and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) preoperatively and postoperatively. The CT imaging demonstrated increased bone density adjacent and within implants with intra-articular osseous bridging, no implant failures or complications were observed.
