(1) The gluteus medius on the outside of the pelvis and the adductor group on the inside of the thigh balance the pelvis from the outside to the inside.

(2) Release gluteus medius muscle ? gluteus minimus muscle? piriformis muscle in serious 6 cases ( 3 patients ).

(3) The tensor fascia lata and gluteus medius turn the thigh bone inward, balancing the turning-out force of the gluteus maximus.

(4) Method:By the posterolateral approach gluteus medius greater trochanter musculoosseous flap was transferred for hip arthrodesis.

(5) Conclusion Gluteus medius and gluteus minimus could result in coxae abduction malformation and alteration of weight line(http://), leading to pelvic obliquity.

(6) MRI after THA shows partial disruptions of the gluteus medius, with mucoid signal alterations and fatty degeneration even in asymptomatic patients.

(7) It was promising to reenforce the replaced gluteus medius muscle. It was favourable to improve the limping gait for those patients suitable to this method.

(8) If the legs tend to turn outward, the tensor fascia lata and the front part of the gluteus medius muscles at the front and highest point of the hip bones work to turn them inward.

(9) Methods 47 cases of femoral neck fractures in young and middle aged adults were treated by pedicled bone flap transposition of gluteus medius muscle and compression screw fixation.

(10) One should consider the possibility of a rupture of the gluteus medius muscle when a patient presents with a limp, pain, and weakness after total hip arthroplasty.

(11) The anterolateral approach utilizes the interval between the tensor fascia and the gluteus medius .

(12) Objective:To provide reference frame for the diagnosis and the differential diagnosis of gluteus medius myofascitis.

(13) The lateral approach is essentially dependent upon elevation of the insertion of the gluteus medius and minimus .

(14) Therefore, insertion of a femoral nail with the hip in increased flexion and adduction might help to lower the risk of injuries to the superior gluteal nerve and the gluteus medius muscle.
