  1. GLUTEAL REGION • Cutaneous nerve supply. • Fascia. • Ligaments. • Muscles. • Nerves. • Important Arterial Anastomoses.

  2. CUTANEOUSNERVES • The gluteal region is divided into four quadrants. Each has its own nerve supply • (1) Upper medial • Supplied by the posterior rami of the upper three lumbar and the upper three sacral nerves.

  3. CUTANEOUSNERVES • (2) Lower medial: • Posteriorcutaneous nerve of the thigh (S1,2 &3).

  4. CUTANEOUSNERVES • (3) Upper lateral : • Lateral branches of Iliohypogastric (L1) and Subcostal (T12). • (4) Lower lateral : • Lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh (L2&3).

  5. FASCIA • Superficial Fascia : • Is thick especially in females and contains large quantities of fat to give the characteristic shape of the buttocks. • Deep Fascia : • Continuous inferiorly with the deep fascia of the thigh (fascia lata).

  6. FASCIA • Superiorly it splits to enclose the gluteus maximus muscle . • It covers the gluteus medius and is attached to the iliac crest.

  7. LIGAMENTS • 1. Iliotibial tract. • 2. Sacrotuberous. • 3. Sacrospinous.

  8. ILIOYIBIAL TRACT • It is a vertical thickened band of the deep fascia on the lateral side of the thigh. • Attachment : • Above : tubercle of the iliac crest. • Below: • 1.Lateral condyle of the tibia. • 2.Capsule of the knee joint. 3.Patella.

  9. MUSCLES INSERTED • It is reinforced by fibers from: • 1. Superficial (3/4) of gluteus maximus. • 2. Tensor fascia latae.

  10. FUNCTION • Contraction of these two muscles tighten the tract and it acts as a splint for the knee. • It helps to make the lower limb works as a rigid column.

  11. LIGAMENTS • 2.Sacrotuberous: • It connects the back of the sacrum to the ischial tuberosity. • 2. Sacrospinous : • It connects the back of the sacrum to the ischial spine.

  12. LIGAMENTS • Function : • They stabilize the sacrum and prevent its mobility at the sacroiliac joint by the weight of the vertebral column.

  13. MUSCLES • (1) Three Glutei : • Maximus. • Medius. • Minimus. • (2) Tensor Fascia latae. • (3) Six Lateral Rotators.

  14. THREE GLUTEAL MUSCLES • The gluteus maximus covers the gluteus medius and the (6) lateral rotators. • The gluteus medius covers the gluteus minimus. • The gluteus minimus rests immediately upon the iliac bone.

  15. GLUTEUS MAXIMUS • It is one of the largest, thickest and most powerful muscles of the body. • It has an extensive Origin: • (1) upper part of the ileum behind the posterior gluteal line. • (2) back of the sacrum. • (3) sacrotuberous ligament.

  16. GLUTEUS MAXIMUS • Insertion : • Superficial¾ to the iliotibial tract. • Deep¼ to the gluteal tuberosity of the femur. • Nerve supply : • Inferior gluteal nerve.

  17. ACTION • (1) It is the main extensor of the hip. • It is used only when the thigh has to be extended with Force : • (a) Rising from a sitting position. • (b) Climbing a hill. • C. Running. • It is not used in walking on a level.

  18. ACTION • (2) A powerful lateral rotator of the hip (when the thigh is extended) • (3) Its contraction makes the iliotibial tract tense .

  19. INTRAMUSCULAR INJECTION • The great thickness of gluteus maximus makes it ideal for intramuscular injection. • The injection should be given on the upper outer quadrant of the buttock to avoid injury of the following nerves: sciatic, tibial, common peronealand inferior gluteal.

  20. BURSAE RELATED • Three bursae lie under the gluteus maximus : • 1. A bursa between the lower edge of the muscle and the ischial tuberosity. • 2. A large bursa separating the muscle from the greater trochanter. • 3. A large bursa between the aponeurotic part of the muscle and vastuslateralis.

  21. GLUTEUS MEDIUS • It is a large thick powerful fan shaped muscle. • Origin : • A large area between the iliac crest and the middle gluteal line.

  22. GLUTEUS MEDIUS • Insertion : • In the postero superior angle of the greater trochanter and the oblique line on its lateral surface.

  23. GLUTEUS MEDIUS • Nerve supply : • Superior gluteal nerve. • Action : • 1.Abduction of the thigh. • 2.Medial rotation of the thigh (anterior fibers ).

  24. GLUTEUS MEDIUS • In standing, if the support of one limb is suddenly removed, the gluteus medius of the other side contracts to prevent the pelvis from falling on the unsupported side. • The alternative action of the gluteus medius on both sides is responsible for keeping the pelvis level during walking. • Without the gluteus medius of both sides the gait becomes rolling on a broad base.

  25. GLUTEUS MINIMUS • It is a fan shaped muscle that lies deep to the anterior part of gluteus medius. • Origin : • From the ilium between the middle and inferior gluteal lines.

  26. GLUTEUS MINIMUS • Insertion : • Anterior surface of greater trochanter. • Nerve supply : • Superior gluteal nerve. • Action : • same as gluteus medius.

  27. TENSOR FASCIA LATAE • It is a short thick muscle that lies at the junction of the gluteal region and the upper part of the front of the thigh. • Origin : • From the extreme anterior part of the iliac crest (just behind the anterior superior iliac spine).

  28. TENSOR FASCIA LATAE • Insertion : • In the iliotibial tract. • Nerve supply: • Superior gluteal nerve.

  29. TENSOR FASCIA LATAE • Action : • It tightens the knee so that in walking the knee can take the weight of the body while the other foot is off the ground. • The extension of the knee is made through tightening of the iliotibial tact with the help of gluteus maximus.

  30. SIX LATERAL ROTATORS • Piriformis. • Obturator internus. • Gemelli (superior and inferior ). • Obturator externus. • Quadratus femoris.

  31. SIX LATERAL ROTATORS • These muscles pass behind the hip joint. • They lie below and behind gluteus minimus. • They are covered by gluteus maximus.
