Clinically and retrospectively, treatment of 1280 patients with gluteal muscles contracture, being subjected to a 'Z-shaped' release lengthening operation and efficiency exercise, was clearly standardized. All the cases were followed up from 3 months to 2 years with the effective rate being 100 %, the cure rate being 98. 5 %, the recent complications being 5%, and the far complications being 0. 2 %. It was concluded that the clear diagnosis combined with standarized operation and efficiency functional exercise could greatly improve the therapeutic effects of gluteal muscles contracture.展开更多
