Abstract:
[Objective]To compare the immediate therapeutic effects of the treatment of gluteal muscle constracture(GMC)with arthroscopic release of contractured tissue and conventional surgery.To investigate the indications of arthroscopic surgery.[Method]Ninty-six limbs of 48 patients with traditional surgery and 84 limbs of 42 patients with arthroscopic surgery were analyzed in terms of operation time,length of the incision,postoperative pain,complications,the time of exercise,postoperative hospital stay and one-year recurrence rate.[Result]Arthroscopic surgery group had smaller incisions,earlier exercise,less postoperative pain and shorter hospital stay than conventional surgery group,but the two groups showed no significant difference in operative time,complications,effects of operation and one-year recurrence rate.[Conclusion]Arthroscopic release of contracture tissue is a safe,effective,economical and cosmetic way to treat the gluteal muscle contracture.This method is worthy of wide promotion.
