OBJECTIVE: To explore a better surgical mode to treat gluteal muscle contracture. METHODS: In 98 cases, superior cross incision of large tuberosity was performed in 20 cases, posterosuperior curve incision of large tuberosity was performed in 20 cases, and exteroinferior cross incision of iliac spine in the other 58 cases. The patients were observed after operation and followed up. RESULTS: The patients who received exteroinferior cross incision of iliac spine recovered soon without bleeding and infection after operation, which indicated the lowest incidental rate of postoperative complication. CONCLUSION: Exteroinferior cross incision of iliac spine is a safe and effective surgical operation to loosen the gluteal muscle contracture.
