Posterior Hip Muscles 2.png
Gluteus Medius
Muscle Type
Origin Gluteal surface of ilium, under gluteus Maximus
Insertion Greater trochanter of the femur
Action Abduction of the hip; preventing adduction of the hip. Medial/internal rotation and flexion of the hip (anterior fibers). Extension and Lateral/external rotation of the hip (posterior fibers)
Synergists Gluteus Minimus, Tensor Fascia Lata, Gluteus Maximus|upper gluteus maximusProperty "Has muscle synergists" (as page type) with input value "Gluteus Maximus|upper gluteus maximus" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process.
Antagonists Hip Adductors
Spinal innervation L4, L5, S1
Peripheral Innervation Superior gluteal nerve
Vasculature superior gluteal artery
