“The recent release of Camber’s Prolix™ has resulted in the first real advancement in SI Fusion surgery options in years. As the first bone graft delivery system to compliment the ‘old school screws only’ fix of the past, Prolix has revolutionized this difficult diagnosis. This percutaneous procedure has been well received by my patients, with some saying you’ve changed my life forever, no longer do I need pain pills or even to see my pain management physician!” “In sacroiliac disease, as the surgeon, it’s all about patient selection.
