SacroFuse®: A Smarter Solution for SI Joint Fusion
- Taylor Headley
Project Manager, Executive Council, KIC Ventures
In the shift toward outpatient spine care, sacroiliac (SI) joint fusion has become a high-value, high-impact procedure. With the introduction of SacroFuse® by Sacrix®, surgeons now have a minimally invasive solution that’s purpose-built for stability, simplicity, and faster recovery.
​
Developed around the Less Exposure Surgery (LES®) philosophy, SacroFuse empowers spine specialists to treat SI joint dysfunction with precision and confidence—without the invasiveness of traditional fusion techniques.



Benefits of the SacroFuse® System
​
SacroFuse is fully cannulated and self-cutting, allowing for a streamlined, percutaneous approach with minimal disruption to surrounding anatomy. The implant's dual-thread design engages both cortical and cancellous bone, providing exceptional fixation.
​
Its three integrated fusion channels direct bone graft material into the joint itself—enhancing bony ingrowth, stability, and long-term fusion success. The RBM surface treatment on both ends of the implant supports osteointegration, and a wide variety of implant sizes ensures adaptability across patient anatomies.
Color-coded implants and a simplified insertion system make intraoperative workflows smoother and faster, especially in ASC and outpatient environments.
​
A Streamlined Surgical Workflow
​
SacroFuse was designed for ease of use. The full technique involves just a few key steps:
-
Pre-op Planning & Positioning: CT or X-ray imaging guides entry point selection; the patient is placed prone with SI joints relaxed.
-
Access & Guidewire Placement: Using outlet oblique fluoroscopy, a starting point is identified; the guidewire is inserted along the optimal trajectory.
-
Dilation & Implant Insertion: Tissue is dilated over the guidewire, and the implant is inserted using a guided, threaded technique under continuous fluoroscopic confirmation.
-
Optional Second Implant: A second trajectory can be placed parallel to the first, depending on patient need.
Once inserted, final implant position is confirmed via lateral and oblique views.
​
Designed for the Future of Spine
​
SacroFuse supports the trend toward less invasive, outpatient spine surgery by reducing OR time, improving precision, and offering predictable outcomes. It’s a strong choice for surgeons who value workflow efficiency without compromising clinical integrity.
