Talk:Sacroiliac joint

Untitled
This page was original created as Ileosacral joint, but renamed to Sacroiliac joint, as the second term is by far the more common term. No text changed except that necessary to reflect the name change. SWAdair | Talk 02:32, 8 Aug 2004 (UTC)

 * The joint is a vigorously elaborated-on subject of many practitioners in massage techniques. Yet some orthopedists reportedly doubt that it really is a joint, or even exists at all, including one orthopaedic specialist who, as he said, was referring to a 2004 international congress held at a German university's school of medicine.

See my below comment. Furthermore it must be classified as a joint, even if it is hardly mobile. The reason being that the stiffening of the junction trhough arthritis and less flexible ligaments gives loss of function, such as problems in shifting from flexion of the hip to full extension. If my sources in medical litterature, which are up to date, are correct, then there are indeed synovial traits related to the anterior aspect of the joints, which implies a synovial membrane with fluid, then it is most certainly a joint structure, and could be classified in no other way. Anything else would have to be original research or too new to have a common consensus within the community, thus violating the purpose of the article. Madskile 06:30, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

The Message
Could this be what is referred to in a line from the 'The Message' by Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five? "Can't stop to turn around/broke my ?sacroiliac?." --62.31.12.18 22:39, 4 December 2006 (UTC) There was a very good study published in the early 1980's in Spine Journal that made a good case for classifying the sacroiliac joint as synovial. Another study compared x-rays and CT scans and showed that x-rays were of dubious value often giving the fals impression of fused joint structure negated by the ct scans.72.193.72.135 05:11, 20 December 2006 (UTC) He is speaking of injuries due to breakdancing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.80.245.143 (talk) 05:52, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Grand Master Flash
He is refering to break dancing. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.124.164.183 (talk) 18:37, 26 February 2007 (UTC).

No Flash isn't referring to break dancing. Although there is a move that is called the same thing.

Flash is referring to aches and pains of living in the city.

Neon King Kong doesn't sound like rap dancer either, rather its the enforcer... the alpha male of the block. the one who ones the territory and collects his cut.

Blondie
Debbie Harry ( Blondie ) also had some sensation in hers during "Rapture". Maybe the Man from Mars caused it.

10cc meant it that way. "C'mon back do the sacro-iliac Won't you come on back do the sacro-iliac".. What do you do in the back room ?

THere's a whole heap of other references to the same word in lyrics.. Sinatra, Jerry Lee Lewis, Crosby, Loius Armstrong, even Charlie Daniels .. in georgia. ...

 * Sounds like an excellent case for a "Cultural legacy" section or similar. Surely a first for what is basically an entry on human anatomy? Dotdotdotcomma (talk) 09:28, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

Joint classification
The two sacroiliac joints are each divided into an anterior synovial and a posterior syndesmotic joint, whilst it is often commonly argued that the joint as a whole might best be described as amphiartrotic in character. Moores' clinically oriented anatomy describes it as the first, and so does an old Thieme Flexibook I have on the Locomotor system, however the latter is currently being taught at medical schools throughout Europe. Is there any more recent references which can make a conclusion possible? Joint classification is after all one of the more interesting points regarding this joint.

Missing ligament?
I believe this article should be linked where the other two ligaments have been: Interosseous sacroiliac ligament

This might be a minor point, but I believe important as people may not know that another section of the ligament exists. Alty 10:20, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

New Image?
This image for the sacroiliac joint does not clarify where the joint (joints?) actually are. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mary Jewel (talk • contribs) 14:18, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

Specialized Doctor / Treatment
What kind of doctor specializes in treatment for this joint? What type of imaging can capture this area? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mary Jewel (talk • contribs) 14:18, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

The pelvic girdle as a whole
A remark on the section 'Function'. None of the movements in the sacroiliac joint would seem geometrically possible were the pelvis stiff and inflexible. Shouldn't there be some mentioning of the pubic symphysis which, as I guess, by bending, gliding, or spreading must cooperate in the overall deformation of the pelvic girdle? -- Binse (talk) 00:09, 3 April 2014 (UTC)
