To report the successful coil embolization of a rare gluteal artery aneurysm and review therapeutic options for this rare condition. We report a case of pseudo-aneurysm of superior gluteal artery initially diagnosed as gluteal abscess. They can be diagnosed by Doppler ultrasound, computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Mainstay of the diagnosis is by angiography and the preferred man...

Most of the sciatic nerve course in individuals is normal and variations seen approximately sixteen to twenty five percent cases. Often sciatica misdiagnosed. Pseudo-sciatica occurs as a result non-spinal etiological factors. Understanding origin needed correctly diagnose sciatica. The present study undertaken determine nerve, along with its variations. Material And Methods: following was condu...

To find a new parameter indicating muscle fitness in Thoroughbred horses, we examined time-dependent recovery of glycogen content and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase activity of skeletal muscle after intensive treadmill running. Two repeated 50-sec running sessions (13 m/sec) were performed on a flat treadmill (approximately 90%VO2max). Muscle samples of the middle gluteal muscle were...

Bilateral psoas abscesses extending to the gluteal muscle and intrapelvic area are uncommon. We present our experience with computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous catheter drainage for the treatment of multiple aggressive abscesses in a diabetic patient. The abscesses completely resolved after the procedures. Psoas abscess should be considered in the differential diagnosis of older diabet...

A 47-year-old female presented to clinic with a 5-year history of a left buttock mass. The patient's hemoglobin was low (9.7 g/dL); laboratory analysis was otherwise unremarkable. Ultrasound of the left gluteal region demonstrated a heterogeneous vascular solid lesion. Magnetic resonance and computed tomography imaging showed an enhancing mass extending from the left ischioanal fossa through th...

This report describes our experiences using the superior gluteal artery perforator (SGAP) flaps for reconstruction of 2 sacral sore cases. A 47-year-old female patient and a  38-year-old man with sacral sores were treated in our unit. The size of the defects were approximately 5×6 cm2  and 8×9 cm2, the  defects were repaired by SGAP flaps. The size of designed was  SGAP flaps varied from  7×20 ...

is gluteal autoaugmentation. Most articles focusing on the buttock region in a massive weight loss patient propose some form of auto-augmentation by using the surplus tissue. However, in a certain type of patient, this form of augmentation may not be possible due to the pronounced weight loss with lacking tissue volume. Additionally, creating flaps and burying them subcutaneously can also lead ...
