Inclusion Criteria

  • Clinical diagnosis of sacroiliitis.
  • At least 3 positive physical examination maneuvers [FABER (flexion, abduction, and external rotation), POSH (posterior shear), REAB (resisted abduction), Fortin's finger test],
  • Moderate to severe pain (NRS pain score ≥ 3/10) refractory to oral anti-inflammatory.
  • Age from 18ys to 60ys.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Ages less than 18 or more than 85 years.
  • Body Mass Index (BMI) above 35 kg/m

  • Coagulation disorder as bleeding tendency and platelet dysfunction.
  • Contraindication for prone position or radiological exposure.
  • Patient refuse .
  • Pain suggestive of bilateral sacroiliac joint involvement (it would have been difficult to assess pain and disability secondary to each SIJ).

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) pain scores

Time Frame: 3 months

It measures pain intensity (0 no pain - 10 worst pain imaginable)

Oswestry disability index score

Time Frame: 1 month

It evaluates the physical function (0% minimal disability - 100% bed - bound patient)

Secondary Outcomes

  • Procedure time(Procedure)
  • Analgesic requirement(1 month)
  • Patient satisfaction ( global perceived effect on a 7-point scale (GPE) )(3 months)
