Editorial Commentary: Pioneering the Gluteal Interval: Understanding and Treating Undersurface and Full-Thickness Gluteus Medius Tears of the Hip.

Abstract

Lateral-based hip disease is severely impairing for many patients. Treatment decision making requires a thorough understanding of the biomechanical and clinical interpretation of the physical examination. The outcomes of these under-recognized pathologies are explained with success. A recent study has described the diagnostic and surgical treatment outcomes of this impairing condition of partial and full-thickness gluteus medius tears.
