The Sacroiliac Ligament are a group of strong fibrous bands that contribute to the stability of the sacroiliac joint, which connects the sacrum (the triangular bone at the base of the spine) to the ilium (part of the hip bone). In orthopaedics, the sacroiliac ligaments are critical structures, and their integrity is crucial for proper functioning of the pelvic girdle. These ligaments include the anterior sacroiliac ligament, the interosseous sacroiliac ligament, and the posterior sacroiliac ligament. They help to limit excessive movement in the sacroiliac joint, preventing shear forces and providing stability during weight-bearing activities. Dysfunction or injury to these ligaments can lead to sacroiliac joint pain, instability, and altered gait. Orthopedic assessments of the sacroiliac ligaments involve clinical examination, imaging studies, and specialized tests to evaluate joint stability and function. Treatment options for sacroiliac ligament issues may include physical therapy, joint injections, and in some cases, surgical interventions such as fusion procedures to stabilize the joint.
