Sacrococcygeal Ligament

Sacrococcygeal Ligament

The Sacrococcygeal Ligament is a fibrous band that connects the sacrum, the triangular bone at the base of the spine, to the coccyx, the small, triangular bone at the bottom of the spine. In orthopaedics, this ligament is relevant in the context of sacrococcygeal joint stability and function. While the sacrococcygeal joint is generally limited in terms of movement, injuries or hypermobility in this region can contribute to pain and discomfort. Orthopedic specialists may evaluate the sacrococcygeal ligament, along with surrounding structures, to assess issues related to lower back pain, pelvic stability, and coccydynia (pain in the coccyx). Conditions affecting the sacrococcygeal ligament may result from trauma, childbirth, or degenerative changes. Orthopedic assessments often involve clinical examinations, imaging studies, and consideration of the patient's medical history to identify the cause and extent of ligamentous issues.
Treatment approaches for sacrococcygeal ligament-related problems in orthopaedics may include conservative measures such as rest, physical therapy, and the use of cushions for sitting comfort. Severe cases might require more invasive interventions or surgical procedures to address persistent pain or instability, emphasizing the importance of understanding the anatomy and function of the sacrococcygeal ligament in orthopedic practice.
