An Anatomical Cadaveric Demonstration of an Ultrasound-Guided Fascial Plane Injection Pathway in the Deep Gluteal Space [PDF]
Background: Deep gluteal syndrome (DGS) has traditionally been attributed to sciatic nerve entrapment within the deep gluteal space. However, increasing evidence suggests that enthesopathy and soft tissue pathology of the short external rotators may also
