Partial Detachment of the Gluteus Maximus Muscle to Expose the Proximal Third of the Sciatic Nerve in the Infragluteal Approach: An Alternative Technique to Minimize Iatrogenic Muscle Deafferentation Damage
{{output}}
Exposing the proximal extrapelvic sciatic nerve usually requires a partial transsection of the gluteus maximus muscle. The authors describe a modified infragluteal technique for mobilizing the gluteus maximus muscle, with only partial detachment of the muscle ... ...
