Long-Term Reduction of Sacroiliac Joint Pain With Peripheral Nerve Stimulation.
We recently demonstrated that 86% of the patients treated with peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) for therapy-refractory sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain were satisfied with the result after 1 year of treatment. ⋯ We have shown for the first time that PNS is a successful long-term therapy for SIJ pain.
