| Gluteus Minimus | |
|---|---|
| Muscle Type | |
| Origin | From area in between the anterior gluteal line and inferior gluteal line of Gluteal surface ilium, under gluteus medius. |
| Insertion | Greater trochanter of the femur |
| Action | Works in concert with gluteus medius: abduction of the hip; preventing adduction of the hip. Medial rotation of thigh. |
| Synergists | Gluteus Medius, Tensor Fascia Lata, upper 2/3 of [[Gluteus MaximusProperty "Has muscle synergists" (as page type) with input value "upper 2/3 of [[Gluteus Maximus" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process. |
| Antagonists | Lateral Rotator Group |
| Spinal innervation | |
| Peripheral Innervation | |
| Vasculature | superior gluteal artery |
