Abstract:
Objective To study the therapeutic effect of ankylosing spondylitis treated with sacroiliac joint injection under C-arm X-ray guidance. Methods Four hundred and eighty-three patients of ankylosing spondylitis were divided randomly into two groups according to the treatment method. Four hundred and twenty-one cases were in group A:sacroiliac joint injection under C-arm X-ray, the injection medicine were diprospan or triamcinolone acetonide and methotrexate, and with oral sulfasalazine (SASP) as well. Sixty-two cases were in group B: oral medicion SASP and meloxicam alone without injection. Self-evaluation, finger-to-floor distance, changes in Schober's sign, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP) before and after treatment of 3 d, 1 week,2 weeks, 3 weeks, 4 weeks and 3 months were observed. Results Two indicators including self-evaluation and finger-to-floor distance at initial 3 d were significantly lower than those before treatment in group A: (6.18 ±0.55) scores vs. (8.89 ±0.53) scores, (30.10 ±3.94) cm vs. (50.20 ±3.93) cm, P<0.05. Schober's sign and occiput-to-wall distance at 1 week after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment in group A:(3.44± 0.32) cm vs.(3.19±0.47) cm, (9.49±0.68) cm vs. (10.72±2.36) cm, P<0.05. Two indicators including self-evaluation and finger-to-floor distance at 1 week after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment in group B:(7.07 ± 0.72) scores vs. (9.08 ±0.46) scores, (48.14 ±5.62) cm vs. (50.84 ±4.33) cm, P<0.05. Schober's sign at 4 weeks after treatment was significantly lower than that than before treatment in group B:(3.49± 0.56) cm vs. (3.22±0.58) cm, P<0.05. Occiput-to-wall distance at 2 weeks after treatment was significantly lower than that before treatment in group B:(9.08±1.54) cm vs. (10.11±1.58) cm, P<0.05. Conclusion The method of C-arm X-ray guided sacroiliac joint injection for treatment of ankylosing spondylitis is effective and feasible.
