Article Synopsis
- The objective of the surgical procedure is to address abductor deficiency by transferring the gluteus maximus and refixing it at the greater trochanter.
- This method is suitable for patients with significant atrophy and fatty degeneration of the gluteal muscles (over 50%), while contraindications include low muscle degeneration, limited strength, and infections.
- The surgical technique involves making incisions to create a triangular flap from the gluteus maximus, which is then repositioned to improve hip stability and muscle function.
