Bilateral absence: A rare anomaly of the gemelli muscles.
2021
Summary The superior and inferior gemelli are deep muscles of the gluteal region, that facilitate the maintenance of a dynamic stability of the hip joint. Their absence could increase the chances of failure in the management of total hip anthroplasty and column acetabular ring fractures. We present a case of an adult female cadaver, with bilateral absence of the superior and inferior gemelli muscles.
