INTRODUCTION: Gluteus medius lesions are rare and can present with lateral hip pain. We present a spectrum of pathologies involving the gluteus medius and discuss the imaging features. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A search of our oncology database at tertiary orthopaedic oncology service was performed. The imaging features of these were analysed. RESULTS: There were nine cases involving the gluteus medius, which included soft tissue sarcomas, lipomas, infection and trauma with an average age of 62 years. CONCLUSION: Gluteus medius lesions are rare and one should be aware of these as these can present as lateral hip pain.
