ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the clinical therapeutic effect of the release of gluteal muscle contracture by radiofrequency under arthroscopy.@*METHODS@#From January 2004 to April 2005, 86 patients with gluteal muscle contracture were treated by radiofrequency release under arthroscopy.The patients were followed-up for 6-18 months(mean=12.6 months).@*RESULTS@#Getting carriage, squatting down while keeping their knees contacting, crossing leg test, and impact on movement were served as evaluation criteria. Of the 86 patients, 79 had excellent results, 5 good, and the rest 2 were acceptable. There was no recurrence at the last follow-up, and all the patients were satisfied.@*CONCLUSION@#For gluteal muscle contracture, radiofrequency release under arthroscopy has minimally invasion, good results and quick recovery.
