Objectives: To investigate the effect of a percutaneous radiofrequency (RF) heat lesion
compared with a sham procedure, applied to the lateral branches of L5, S1, S2, S3, and S4 …

Background: Low back pain may arise from disorders of the sacroiliac joint in up to 30% of
patients. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of the nerves innervating the sacroiliac joint has …

Objectives: Sacroiliac joint pain is a common cause of low back pain (LBP). Cooled
radiofrequency ablation (c-RFA) of the lateral branches was recently introduced with the …

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has become an option for those with chronic or refractory
sacroiliac (SI) joint pain. The purpose of this critical review is to assess the existing literature …

Background and objectives: The sacroiliac joint (SIJ) is a potential source of low back pain.
Establishing the diagnosis of SIJ syndrome is difficult because there are no specific criteria …

The sacroiliac joint accounts for approximately 16% to 30% of cases of chronic mechanical
low back pain. Pain originating in the sacroiliac joint is predominantly perceived in the …

Background The unavailability of an effective and long-lasting treatment for sacroiliac-based
pain has led researchers to study the efficacy of radiofrequency in denervation. In this study …

Objective To determine the incidence of neuropathic pain after cooled radiofrequency
ablation (RFA) of the sacral lateral branches for the treatment of chronic posterior sacroiliac …

This retrospective case series of patients with refractory sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain presents
our first 77 SIJ radiofrequency ablation (RFA) procedures performed with a multilesion …

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has emerged as a popular intervention for chronic pain
management, including pain originating in the sacroiliac joint. It offers a less invasive option …
