AB  - The  sacroiliac  joint  (SIJ)  is  the  largest  axial  joint  in  the  body  with  an  abundance  of  nociceptive  pain  fibers  within  the  joint  and  surrounding  ligaments.  SIJ  dysfunction  or  syndrome  is  pain  originating  in  the  sacroiliac  joint  without  demonstrable  anatomic  lesion  and  is  presumed  to  be  due  to  a  biochemical  abnormality.1  Predisposing  factors  include  conditions  causing  stress  on  the  joint  such  as  spinal  deformity,  previous  spinal  surgery,  and  leg  length  discrepancy.  Symptoms  of  SI  joint  dysfunction  include  pain  in  the  superior  medial  quadrant  of  the  buttock,  the  lateral  buttock,  and  inferior  to  the  posterosuperior  iliac  spine,  with  radiation  to  the  greater  trochanter,  upper  lateral  thigh,  and  groin  (Figure  26-1).
