title: [Are sacroiliac joint block and insertion tendinosis of the musculus erector trunici too rarely diagnosis as the etiology of failed back syndrome after intervertebral disk operation].
abstract: Dysfunction of sacroiliac joint and tendinosis of erector trunci muscle may cause severe pain after lumbar discectomy. In this paper we discuss pathophysiology, clinical appearance as well as specific diagnostic procedures and therapy. We want to point out that sacroiliac joint dysfunction must be taken into consideration if persistent pain occurs after discectomy.
