The iliolumbar ligament strengthens the lumbosacral joint assisted by the lateral lumbosacral ligament, and, like all other vertebral joints, by the posterior and anterior longitudinal ligaments, the ligamenta flava, and the interspinous and supraspinous ligaments. [4] It reduces the range of movement of the lumbosacral joint. [6]
The lumbosacral ligament extends obliquely inferior-ward from its medial attachment. Superiorly, it is partially continuous with the inferior margin of the iliolumbar ligament [ 2 ] (the lumbosarcal ligament can be considered an inferior subdivision of the iliolumbar ligament).
The most commonly disrupted and/or torn ligaments are the iliolumbar ligament and the posterior sacroiliac ligament. [9] The ligamentous structures offer resistance to shear and loading. The deep anterior, posterior, and interosseous ligaments resist the load of the sacrum relative to the ilium. [1]
The posterior layer is attached to the spinous processes of lumbar and sacral vertebrae, and to the supraspinous ligament. [ 2 ] : 814–815 At sacral levels, the posterior layer attaches to the posterior superior iliac spines, and posterior iliac crest, fuses with the underlying erector spinae muscle aponeurosis, [ 2 ] : 814–815 and extends ...
The quadratus lumborum muscle originates by aponeurotic fibers into the iliolumbar ligament and the internal lip of the iliac crest for about 5 centimetres (2.0 in). It inserts from the lower border of the last rib for about half its length and by four small tendons from the apices of the transverse processes of the upper four lumbar vertebrae.
The diagnosis is confirmed when the patient reports a significant change in relief from pain and the diagnostic injection is performed on 2 separate visits. Published studies have used at least a 75 percent change in relief of pain before a response is considered positive and the sacroiliac joint deemed the source of pain.

In medicine, a joint injection (intra-articular injection) is a procedure used in the treatment of inflammatory joint conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, gout, tendinitis, bursitis, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, [2] and occasionally osteoarthritis.
