ABSTRACT

The gemelli are deep muscles, which act together with the obturator internus muscle, stabilizing dynamically the hip joint. In the present article, a case of bilateral absence of both gemelli muscles in the pelvis of a female cadaver is described. A possible embryological explanation of this condition is discussed, besides its clinical and surgical importance.

En el presente artículo se describe un caso de ausencia bilateral de ambos músculos gemelos en la pelvis de un cadáver femenino.
