| الوصف: | Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain is often difficult to diagnose. Moreover, while its anatomical characteristics have been well studied, its innervation and the contributions of particular nerves remain controversial, especially in relation to posterior joint innervation. To our knowledge, previous studies have not investigated the presence of nociceptive fibers in the nerves innervating the anterior sacroiliac joint.Eight adult cadaveric sides underwent dissection of the anterior sacroiliac joints. Adjacent anterior rami were examined for branches to the anterior sacroiliac joint. Any branches contributing to the anterior sacroiliac joint were measured and then resected. These samples were fixed in formalin and substance P was identified immunohistologically.On all sides, 1-2 small branches (mean diameter of 0.33 mm) arose from the posterior aspect of the L4 anterior ramus (12.5%), the L5 anterior ramus (62.5%), or simultaneously from both the L4 and L5 anterior rami (25%). These branches had a mean length of 13.5 mm. All histological samples contained nerve tissue. All samples of nerve fibers traveling to the anterior SIJ were positive for diffuse substance P reactivity. There were no histological differences between sides or sex. Each of the branches identified as traveling to the SIJ exhibited similar positivity for Substance P.This cadaveric study demonstrates that the anterior SIJ nerve fibers carry pain fibers. This new knowledge has application to patients with SIJ syndrome and to its various treatments including interventional approaches to SIJ pain. |
