Tears usually begin in the anterior part of the tendon. A complete tear will lead to loss of hip abduction. In cases of intractable pain with examination findings of trochanteric bursitis and weakness in the hip abductors, imaging studies calling attention to a possible tendon rupture may be ...
Access to the peritrochanteric space affords the surgeon with access to pathology associated with the greater trochanter, iliotibial band, trochanteric bursa, sciatic nerve, short external-rota tors, iliopsoas tendon, and the gluteus medius and minimus tendon attachments. Over the last decade, we ...
(i.e., lateral hip pain and maximal tenderness over the greater trochanter),22the finding of both a positive Trendelenburg sign and gait on the symptomatic side accurately detected the MRI finding of a tear in the gluteus medius tendon (sensitivity = 73%, specificity = 77%, positive ...
to review the diagnosis on MRI and radiography of 24 renal transplant recipients with hip pain suspicious for avascular necrosis and to investigate whether there is an association between kidney transplant patients with end-stage renal disease and symptomatic gluteus minimus and medius tendon abnormality...
Abductor deficiency secondary to total hip arthroplasty or primary abductor disruption is a well-known cause of a Trendelenburg gait with associated pain and instability. The history, clinical exam, and supplementary imaging studies aid in establishing t

Gluteus minimus disorders are a potential source of greater trochanteric or anterior hip pain. Disorders of the gluteus minimus tendon most commonly occur in conjunction with gluteus medius tendon abnormalities but can also occur in isolation. Understanding the sonoanatomy of the gluteus minimus muscle...
Conclusions: Endoscopic surgical repair can be an effective treatment of gluteus medius tears in the short term. Fatty degeneration of the gluteus medius and minimus has a negative impact on clinical outcomes of endoscopic gluteus medius repair.Thaunat, Mathieu...
