What is Gluteal Region Anatomy Overview about?
The gluteal region, bounded by the iliac crest and the fold of the buttock, consists primarily of gluteal muscles including the gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus, as well as lateral rotators like the piriformis. Key functions of these muscles include hip extension, lateral rotation, and abduction, with nerve supplies from the superior and inferior gluteal nerves. Injuries to the superior gluteal nerve can lead to loss of hip abduction and characteristic waddling gait.
