Video Summary
This video explains gluteus medius repair for greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS). GTPS involves pathology of the hip abductor mechanism, including bursitis, snapping, and partial/full thickness gluteal tears. Initial treatment is conservative—physical therapy, NSAIDs, injections (preferably PRP over cortisone), and shockwave therapy. Surgical options follow failed conservative care: endoscopic repair for partial or full tears using suture staple, transtendinous, or suture bridge techniques; open repair for large, retracted tears; and gluteus maximus transfer for irreparable tears. These approaches offer favorable outcomes, sustained over five years, enhancing hip function and pain relief.
