Presentation and diagnosis of sacroiliac joint region pain

摘要

There are 6 common clinical scenarios which can be related to sacroiliac (SI) joint region pain: 1) acute onset of SI joint region pain characterised by a reluctance to go forwards when ridden; 2) sudden onset of bucking and kicking out, usually onlywhen ridden; 3) insidious onset of reduced hindlimb impulsion associated with SI joint region pain; 4) thoracolumbar and sacroiliac region pain; 5) unilateral or bilateral hindlimb lameness and SI joint region pain, especially associated with proximal suspensory desmopathy; 6) as a sequel to a previous ilial stress fracture (Dyson and Murray 2003; Dyson 2008).
