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 …

Introduction Low back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, with sacroiliac joint
pain comprising up to 30% of cases of axial lower back pain. Conservative therapies provide …

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 …

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 …

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 …

Objective To compare the percentage of sacral lateral branches (LBs) that would be
captured if lesions were created by seven current sacroiliac joint (SIJ) radiofrequency …

Radiofrequency ablation of the sacral lateral branches targets the innervation of the
posterior sacroiliac ligaments and posterior portion of the sacroiliac joint. These structures …

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 …

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 …

Abstract Background and Objectives. The sacroiliac joint is a common source of chronic low
back pain. We recently described the use of cooled radiofrequency (RF) electrodes for …
