Short- to mid-term outcomes of gluteus maximus transfer for irreparable gluteus medius tears
Gluteus maximus transfer remains a salvage procedure for irreparable GM tears. This procedure demonstrated favourable short- to mid-term outcomes, high patient satisfaction rates, high rate of restoration of normal gait, and a substantial percentage of patients achieving clinically meaningful improvements in functional scores.
