Sacroiliac joints are formed by the sacrum articulating on either side of the innominate bones. Dorsal sacroiliac ligaments support the joint from the back and anterior sacroiliac ligaments from the front. The largest axial joint is the sacroiliac (SI) joint. There are two different kinds of articulating surfaces in this diathroidial joint: 1. Antero-inferior synovial joint between the ilium and sacrum\'s auricular surface. 2. Postero-superior syndesmosis between the sacrum and ilium\'s interosseous surfaces. The entire weight of the upper part of the body is supported by this powerful joint. The two bones interlock at this synovial plane joint because of its asymmetrical elevations and depressions.
